[AusNOG] Solar flare

[Burt Mascareigne]

Wait, What? 

The Earth is "not" flat? 

What is the heresy? 

>From what I gather, it's going to smash the poles, and make an awesome Aurora Borealis, too bad I can't see it :(

Well that's for that...........that part IS obvious!

What side? What continent? Granted there is a global effect, but what where is it localised?

Long since have the days been flat where the entire face of the earth points to the sun/is flat.

Hmm, I may be missing the obvious, but everything I read speaks of the potential impact, but does not speak of WHERE the impact/collision??

Hi people,
First post, so I thought it'd be a good one.
Quite large solar flare about to hit the earth - can't get too much more interesting than that :-) http://www.forbes.com/sites/alexknapp/2012/03/07/nasa-reports-that-solar
