On Sunday July 23, 2017 a spectacular CME emerged from the farside of the sun. Coronagraphs onboard the orbiting Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) tracked the fast-moving cloud as it billowed into space.
NASA's STEREO-A spacecraft, which has a partial view of the sun's farside, identified the source of the blast as active sunspot AR2665.
Sunspot AR2665 will be back on the Earth side of the sun a little more than a week from now. If the sunspot remains active, it could bring a new round of geomagnetic storms and auroras to our planet in early August, reports Spaceweather.
Hypothetical:
The source of the enormous explosion on the farside of the sun is not active sunspot AR2665 but a strange black rectangular anomaly inside the fast-moving cloud.
Now, if you look at the moment the explosion occurs and you follow the fast-moving cloud as it billowed into space then you see something strange inside the cloud that looks like a rectangular black box connected to a string of li…
