Is a giant sun spot point right us cause for concern? Well the following article from interestingengineering.com and written by will give us some insight if we should be concerned:
"Sunspot AR3038, which went from 'big to enormous in 24 hours', has now grown further and is three times bigger than the Earth, Space.com reported. Astronomers are keen to see what sort of solar flare this sunspot will end up emitting, which has strayed away from predictions.
The exact cause of sunspots is unknown, but astronomers believe that electromagnetic flux concentration on the solar surface can cause a temporary disturbance to the convection processes. The result is a drop in temperature which makes the region relatively darker than its surroundings and is referred to as a sunspot.
The diameter of a sunspot can vary from a few miles to hundreds of thousands of miles and it may even be possible to spot one without a telescope. The AR3038 which was spotted earlier this week and was expected to burst, has kept growing bigger and bigger instead and is now three times the size of the Earth.
Sunspots and the solar cycle
Sunspots are expected to increase during the active phase of the solar cycle. Our Sun undergoes this cycle every 11 years, and it entered the active phase earlier this year. Sunspots and subsequent solar flares have increased ever since, with the Sun sending out its most powerful flare in the past five years in April.
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which keeps an eye on the events of the solar surface, reported some flares in May as well but the month of June has seen a relative drop in significant activity.
Helio-scientist Dr. Alex C Young wrote on Twitter last week, Shortly after that, sunspot AR3038 caught the attention of the astronomers.
Sunspot AR3038
On June 20, as the sunspot AR3038 doubled in size it also gave off a C-class solar flare, Earthsky reported. While this is a relatively low-energy flare when compared to the flares that we witnessed around Easter, the activity of the sunspot hasn't ceded.
Instead, its diameter grew further over the next 24 hours, and the single sunspot could now neatly fit three Earths within itself. Scientists believe that the sunspot harbors M-class solar flare, which is 10 times more powerful than a C-class flare. Since the sunspot is facing the Earth, a solar flare emerging from its activity could send high solar winds toward the Earth, possibly today, June 23.
However, sunspot AR3038 hasn't really followed any predictions of the astronomers who had also expected it to burst two days ago. Instead, the sunspot grew further. This also goes to show how little we know about the activity on the solar surface and how it will turn out.
Even though humans on Earth are protected from solar flares by the planet's atmosphere, those out on missions in space do not enjoy the same privilege. High energy radiation from solar flares can even blackout radio communication. So, it is essential that we can accurately predict solar flares and missions like NASA's Parker Solar Probe are important and help us understand our Sun better. "
So this may impact radio and other systems due to the size, but we are protected for the most part due to our atmosphere. Thou the Northern Lights will be amazing I am sure!

I have lost a lot of faith with the Medical Community and the Governments over the last several years, but there are a few good things that can raise above the corruption and the pushing of drugs a new approach to heal people. The following is from www.gaia.com and written by Hunter Parsons that does not involve any drug or pushing an ineffective so called vaccine that the drug company is not held accountable in any way but they use sound! The use of sound can regrow bone tissue! Here is the story:
"The future of regenerative medicine could be found within sound healing by regrowing bone cells with sound waves.
The use of sound as a healing modality has an ancient tradition all over the world. The ancient Greeks used sound to cure mental disorders; Australian Aborigines reportedly use the didgeridoo to heal; and Tibetan or Himalayan singing bowls were, and still are, used for spiritual healing ceremonies.
Recently, a study showed an hour-long sound bowl meditation reduced anger, fatigue, anxiety, and ...
Not a fan of a Defense Agency studying Anti-Gravity and other Exotic Tech, but if the commercial world and make this technology cheap that will change our world yet again. The following is about three minute read and from www.gaia.com. The below was written by Hunter Parsons:
"Wormholes, invisibility cloaks, and anti-gravity — it’s not science fiction, it’s just some of the exotic things the U.S. government has been researching.
A massive document dump by the Defense Intelligence Agency shows some of the wild research projects the United States government was, at least, funding through the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program known as AATIP.
And another lesser-known entity called the Advanced Aerospace Weapons System Application Program or AAWSAP
The Defense Intelligence Agency has recently released a large number of documents to different news outlets and individuals who have filed Freedom of Information Act requests.
Of particular interest are some 1,600 pages released to Vice News, which ...
As our technology gets better we are discovering more about the history of mankind and pushing the timeline back further and further. The following article is from www.gaia.com and written by Michael Chary that discusses this new find that changes the historical timeline:
"Over the past decade, there have been a number of archeological revelations pushing back the timeline of human evolution and our ancient ancestors’ various diasporas. Initially, these discoveries elicit some resistance as archeologists bemoan the daunting prospect of rewriting the history books, though once enough evidence is presented to established institutions, a new chronology becomes accepted.
But this really only pertains to the era of human development that predates civilization — the epochs of our past in which we were merely hunter-gatherers and nomads roaming the savannahs. Try challenging the consensus timeline of human civilization and it’s likely you’ll be met with derision and rigidity.
Conversely, someone of an alternative...
Not sure if you have heard of a show on YouTube called "The Why Files". If not you should check it out it is interesting and has some humor with it on different subjects. Last weeks was on a different theory how the Universe works and how main stream Science is attempting to shut it down like is always seems to do if it goes aguest some special interest. Today it is akin to what happened to those who questioned the Earth was the Center of the Universe that main stream so called Science all believed during the Renaissance period, They called any theory that the Earth was not the Center of the Universe misinformation. Does this sound familiar today? People laughed and mocked people like Leonardo da Vinci, Nicolaus Copernicus, Georg Purbach as crack-pots, conspiracy theorists, nut-jobs and they were suppressed and even imprisoned for their radical thoughts and observations. Again it sounds like today in so many ways. In any event this is a good one to ponder and see even if a bad idea ...
Seemingly chaotic systems like the weather and the financial markets are governed by the laws of chaos theory.
We all have heard about chaos theory, but if you have not or have forgotten what chaos theory is well here you go from interestingengineering.com:
"Chaos theory deals with dynamic systems, which are highly sensitive to initial conditions, making it almost impossible to track the resulting unpredictable behavior. Chaos theory seeks to find patterns in systems that appear random, such as weather, fluid turbulence, and the stock market.
Since the smallest of changes can lead to vastly different outcomes, the long-term behavior of chaotic systems is difficult to predict despite their inherently deterministic nature.
As Edward Lorenz, who first proposed what became commonly known as the Butterfly Effect, eloquently said, "Chaos: When the present determines the future, but the approximate present does not approximately determine the future.""
You may have heard the term about chaos theory as a butterfly flaps its wings in Brazil,...
I for one have lost trust in Medical Doctors due to COVID and reflection that they seem to push pills for everything and untested so called vaccines that is using a unproven technology because the Government and the Medical Boards of the State told them to. There are a very few exceptions. Thus they do not address the key problem just prescribe more and more pills to keep you alive an sick longer for them and Big Phama to profit from you. Will AI do any better? Well that depends on what was used for the training of AI. If it also pushes pills and vaccines without question then you have the same problems noted above. However, if the AI Training includes all possible forms of treatment and they zero in on the right issues for the true problem then there is possibilities they would be way better than most of the current Medical Doctors today.
The following is from an article from interestingengineering.com and written by Paul Ratner:
