    Not sure about that but Nasa has the next gen SDO (Solar Dynamics Observatory) up and running.

    Check it out at the link.It's way better than SOHO.

    I heard it's already shown us unexpected results of UV emissions in solar flare regions.

    Seems there are precursive and postcursive uv emissions that outstrip the flair emissions manyfold.

    This was previously unknown.

    This might point to actualy being able to predict when flares are about to pop.

    I'm pretty sure this new system is gonna WOW us with lots more than cool pics.Those btw are great too.

    very sturdy question and that i've got been following this for some years now. they actually got here out with a report in 2006 touching on the photograph voltaic maximum and greater photograph voltaic flares and it does have a wierd coincidental air approximately it being that it grow to be projected to ensue in and around 2012..nonetheless this would not strengthen or practice any theories concerning 2012, because it stands on my own is considerable and alarming. those photograph voltaic flares could desire to disrupt ability grids, cellular telephone satellites , information superhighway and reason mayhem. Our modern-day society relies upon on computers and verbal replace. If issues got here to a halt it may desire to be quite extreme and value lives. previous each and all the NASA warnings there are warnings from the previous that we additionally can't forget approximately approximately.nonetheless I reported that the nasa warnings do no longer practice any 2012 theories that does no longer mean i do no longer think in them. a number of them I do. They Mayans by no ability pronounced the international could lead to 2012, they only concluded their calendar . different persons from distinctive areas of the international have made predictions and a few of them are quite bleak. The Hopi pronounced the "great Purification", Edgar Cayce pronounced Earth variations and of a pollshift, mom Shipton pronounced the earth shaking. you in hassle-free terms canot forget approximately approximately all of what has been pronounced. you moreover could can't say it is going to all ensue in 2012 the two. we are witnessing most of the biggest variations the earth has seen in historic previous. Animals loss of life off and climate long gone wild. what's up ? i assume we can all see what is going to ensue next . Its in hassle-free terms a count of time.

    SOHO seems to be back to normal, at least the LASCO images, which are the ones I usually look at. The CCDs get overloaded by cosmic rays from time to time.
