It’s Not Planet-X
December 7, 2010, Submitted by: Ken TweetPermalink
A pretty interesting occurrence regarding several recent images taken of the sun from the SDO (Solar Dynamics Observatory) took place yesterday, 6-Dec-2010.
The images have been spotted by a few folks out there and it also had my curiosity peaked for awhile. I thought I would share it for those interested in such things.
It appeared as though a large disc or interplanetary object passed in front of the sun, and was captured in several image frames and movie files from the SDO yesterday. Rumors started spreading fast about Planet-X and other such things.
Here is a video that someone nicely put together showing the fly-by.
What really happened?
The SDO is in a stationary orbit, about 22,000 miles above New Mexico, and is always facing the sun while capturing high resolution images in various wavelengths. A helpful explanation can be found here.
What happened was, the moon crossed the line-of-site between the SDO telescopes and the sun, and was captured doing so.
The following image simulates the “look” as though you were on-board the SDO, and illustrates what happened.
Thanks to Dr. Tony Phillips of NASA who filled me in on what had happened.
This is another perspective angle from the vantage point of the sun looking back towards the Earth and the SDO orbit while the moon partially eclipses the sun.
What does this have to do with modern survival, you might ask? Well, actually not much. I just though it was neat.

It’s an Electric Sun; in fact, an Electric Universe.

More important, what is that deep gash on the lower left side of the sun?
@KMD
The gash was (still is) an enormous magnetic filament, that at one time reached 700,000 km (about half the diameter of the sun). It partially exploded the other day, but as you can see, a huge structure is still in place, and now facing Earth. Here is my post on that phenomenon… Watch Out… Sunspot 1131 and Enormous Filament
If this article is correct, then that would be an eclipse, would it not, and I couldn’t find anywhere that there was an eclipse on Dec. 6th
No, not an eclipse. The moon “literally” passed in between the SDO orbit and the sun (as opposed to in between the Earth and the sun). The image that I put together is fairly close to perspective.
It was a weather balloon.
What about the object diameter. As everyone remembers the diameter should appear as the same diameter as the sun during comparison. Can anyone use an arc or compass to calculate the relative diameter comparison?
If they do not appear the same it must be something else/
Greetings-I’m so glad you asked NASA, & they cleared it all up!Now, how about all the other anomalous items in a long history of semi-truth about any portion of our space program-Come on now, with payloads being so critical, how did they get that “Dunebuggy” up there?
What does this have to do with survival? Everything! You put it here because somewhere deep down you know, too. I just watched David Icke on Conscious Media Network where he points out the artificial moon conspiracy. This is advanced, so you have to research to get it. The moon is our prison wall keeping us here in the five sense prison planet. The origin of the Mayan Calendar tunes to the beginning of our prison sentence and the first egyptian dynasty. This is what we are awakening to.
Bull. Its swamp gas…
Umm, I don’t care what NASA says it is (I don’t trust a word that comes out of their mouths, anyway), but if you play with the settings at Helioviewer, this thing becomes transparent under different light settings. The moon? Snort. That’s a good one. Right up there with weather balloons. And, no, I’m not saying it’s Planet X, I don’t know what the heck it is, but something’s fishy. I tried to find images on the SOHO site, too. No luck. But maybe I’m doing something wrong. Can you pull up 12/6? Curious.
It was the moon. SDO sees several lunar transits
per year, and not at the same time that they are
visible from the ground (then they are called
solar eclipses). SDO is 22,000 miles up, much
closer to the Earth than the moon. SOHO is about
1 million miles out toward the Sun, 4 times farther than the Moon, so it can never see the Moon.
@Phil Scherrer, exactly correct. Thanks for verifying. By the way, nice Website you have over there at Stanford! http://sun.stanford.edu/
