Giant Solar Filament Growing Since August 31 to Ignite an Earth Directed Hyder Flare Explosion

A more than 450,000 km from end-to-end, dark solar filament of magnetism is currently growing on the sun since August 31, 2016.

This giant filament is held above the surface of the sun by magnetic lines of force. The collapse of this unstable structure could produce an Earth directed ‘Hyder flare’ explosion.

But it is only now that space agencies are starting to speak about it. It has indeed reached a mega-size of more than 450,000km in length.

The huge magnetic filament continues growing on the sun. Is it going to trigger a ‘Hyder Flare’ – a flare that occurs away from an active region or sunspot group and that is associated with the sudden disappearance of a dark filament?

Is the magnetic bomb going to collapse onto the sun ejecting a strong storm toward Earth? We’ll Have to wait and see.

Astronomers are encouraged to monitor developments.
