Title: A big bag of hot air is taking the FUN out of PIRATE RADIO this weekend
Post by: ChrisSmolinski on January 19, 2012, 2111 UTC
Active sunspot 1401 erupted today, Jan. 19th, between 15:15 and 16:30 UT. The long-duration blast produced an M3-class solar flare and a CME that appears to be heading toward Earth. Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab confirm that the CME is heading for Earth, and they say strong geomagnetic storms are possible when the cloud arrives during the late hours of Jan. 21st. Their animated forecast track predicts an impact on Jan. 21st at 22:30 UT (+/- 7 hrs).

Tin foil hats at the ready!

You're going to hear a lot of pseudo-science about this, so I am setting the record straight: WEAR THE SHINY SIDE ON THE OUTSIDE!!!

Don't ignore the science! Do it for the children!!!

For most alien disruptor rays and solar bursts this is correct, even for the non-stick variety. The non-stick coating is on the dull side.
