Coronal Holes and Faces in the Sun


Credit: SDO/AIA June 5,2010

Those who pay attention to what's happening beyond planet Earth have probably seen pictures of the coronal hole which has formed on the sun. When looking at the June 5 picture of the coronal hole, I saw more than the indicated coronal hole on the spaceweather.com website. Here are a few of the other images which are within the bigger picture.


This one is kind of fun. It almost looks like he's laughing. You can even see his front teeth.




This one's not quite decided. There's a closed eye on the left of the picture and an open one on the right. And the nose. Well, don't know what to say about the nose. Looks like a bad accident! Or, maybe it's just out of phase?


Can you see the profiles which form the hole?

June 8 face.
Can you see the large eyes, one dark on the left and one light on the right side of the picture? The nose is right below with the lips outlined in light just below the nose. And how about that big bright ear? It also looks like there might be a smaller profile in the lower right of the picture.

Who said the sun doesn't have a personality?
Have fun with the images. You might want to meditate on what meaning they may have for you.

Kanab UFOs or ???

The evening of April 30th, I was walking home from a movie when I noticed a rather bright object with an aura around it. It was not too far above the eastern horizon. Unfortunately, I didn't have a camera with me and by the time I got home and got out the camera, the object was no longer as photogenic. However, there were three other less bright objects in the southeastern sky, so I decided to see what I could capture.

I took out my HP camera which takes pictures and short video clips and created a short 30 second or so video and then decided to see what I could capture with my binoculars which have a built in picture and video camera. That's when things got interesting. Not when I took the clips. Everything looked normal through the binoculars, but what it recorded is anything but normal.


The picture above is a still clip from the binocular video. Now what I was taking a picture of was this.


So, for your exploration, here is the You Tube video I created of the two clips and my thoughts about this manifestation. Enjoy, Ariana
