Grand solar minimum. They're cutting off most if not all public access to publicly accessible solar monitoring installations and programs.

NASA is getting fucky too with updating the code infrastructure that provides access to SOHO data, images and movies. They expect the work to take several weeks.

Spaceweather.eu is down as well.

Shuman resonance has been spiking. We've got record numbers of record strength hurricanes and typhoons. Weird shit flying past the sun. Weather warfare in full swing. Record flooding across the world. Crop shortages. Pandemonium.

Everyone should focus on the shiny orange turd in the whitehouse though. Don't worry about the impending collapse of the USD. Just focus on the shiny glowing orange turd.

The_Duke_of_Dabs ago

Some turd claiming to be Q earlier posted that ET's were real. I wanted to facepalm harder than ever before.

Dysnomia ago

ETs are real

I've completely avoided Q. Like, almost fervently. I really have nothing to substantiate my suspicion that it's a series of trolls playing jokes on the public. But I'd put my money on that we was betting.

ETs are real though. I could have a whole discussion with you on that and would probably at least change your mind at least a wee bit.

ZeldaFish ago

Holloman AFB and Alamogordo are uncomfortably close to where that observatory is. Could have been something fishy to do with those places (which are rumored to be performing black projects), but I wholeheartedly expect the cover story to be a "gas leak" or something similar, if they give any explanation at all...

goatsandbros ago

Theory: someone shit in a box and mailed it, and the box popped at the post office.

SYNCORSWIM ago

Would it have something to do with radio transmissions? But then why would the post office be closed? I wonder if the mail is being rerouted and if there is mail that is stuck there and people aren't receiving it? This just doesn't make sense. They have crime scene tape up at the observatory, but that doesn't mean anything specific.

1Iron_Curtain ago

Probably testing some new space weapon involving lasers or something like that or some sort of new radioactive material that could be used to build an extremely powerful weapon.

canbot ago

The only logical connection between the two would be that the post office delivers there. So possibly the FBI has some information about an attack via the mail. They may be keeping it a secret because other places are also targeted and they don't want to reveal how much they know.

Dysnomia ago

Who attacks a solar observatory?

Meanwhile, public solar observatories across the globe are also shutdown. Are they being attacked too?

canbot ago

Flat earthers

SYNCORSWIM ago

The post office is on the same road within walking distance. They probably just shut down the whole area. I looked at it on google earth. There's not much there besides the observatory.

Someone left a nasty meal beneath the seats and it became a biohazard.

Anybody see those no label all white tanker trucks?

I love those.

"(space kind.)"

I lost it.

HST ago

I mean... it's probably a working observatory..

GoBackToReddit ago

I can only find this on 3 sites with a quick search.

  1. http://archive.fo/OzyrD
  2. http://archive.fo/HJTHR
  3. http://archive.fo/P5bNp

Two of them would not archive directly.

The report interesting but I'm skeptical.

DamnDan ago

Someone fucked up the stargate.

SweetChicken ago

First thoughts, someone at the observatory saw something they weren’t supposed to see or no one expected to see. The USPS was closed because someone tried to mail a package out trying to get info out?! Weird shit that reminds me of some doomsday movie.

HST ago

Why would you need an ongoing investigation shutting the post office down if that was the case? That's a simple matter of "find and destroy package"

SweetChicken ago

I don't know. Maybe workers knew what the information was too and the FBI had to place them in "protective custody" or some shit. Any way you slice the story it is really odd that the FBI had to take over and no details are getting out. Maybe it was a box of those 'They Live' glasses. ;)

Yuke ago

Probably just a bomb threat or suspicious package found or something, with a little something spicy added to the mix to make this a little more interesting.

FuckYourSafespace ago

If it was a bomb threat they would follow the known playbook for bomb threat. They are not.

l_voated_today ago

That doesn't take four days to clear and they wouldn't withhold that information from local LEO.

Dysnomia ago

Why?

You know what. Nvm. Fuck your weak ass memes.

draaaak ago

You ok buddy? Need someone to talk to?

Dysnomia ago

No. Yes.

draaaak ago

Well, good luck with that.

Dysnomia ago

See? Fuck you.

Lol

draaaak ago

Haha

Ok, fine. Spill it. But don't get upset if I give you advice you don't like.

TwitterBannedIt ago

he just so ronery

Dougal_McHaggis ago

If the post office got closed too I'm guessing some conspiracy nut mailed them some white powder.

The FBI is refusing to tell us what’s going on,” House said. “We’ve got people up there (at Sunspot) that requested us to standby while they evacuate it. Nobody would really elaborate on any of the circumstances as to why. The FBI were up there. What their purpose was nobody will say.”

He said he has a lot of unanswered question about what occurred at Sunspot.

“But for the FBI to get involved that quick and be so secretive about it, there was a lot of stuff going on up there,” House said. “There was a Blackhawk helicopter, a bunch of people around antennas and work crews on towers but nobody would tell us anything.”

Seems legit.

SYNCORSWIM ago

Maybe they found some boxes of kids that were being shipped.

Dysnomia ago

Boxes. Of. Kids.

Shirly, you jest.

Dysnomia ago

Consider me thoroughly disturbed.

2nd result from tineye does absolutely nothing to make me feel better.

SYNCORSWIM ago

It's beyond disturbing, but that's what I suspected for a long time. My suspicion has been confirmed. I wish I was wrong.

SYNCORSWIM ago

No shirly. I'm not jesting. Haven't you seen the pics? I'll see if I can find them.

theoldones ago

is there something the solar observatory shouldn't be seeing?

the USPS place is where the operational HQ would be located

some kind of sun cult?

Vic_V ago

my first thought was the observatory observed something it shouldnt have. recently there were articles on "an object flying past earth larger than the giza pyramid"

hmmm

DanHalen ago

It's not too far from an air force base. What else is around it?

Kregan ago

But all jokes aside, this is beyond strange and I would def like to hear a follow up on this situation.

Kregan ago

Nothing to see here folks, run along now, shut the fuck up, watch football and remember to hate Trump and drink responsibly.

Shizy ago

Or drink irresponsibly, screw a stranger, and get your abortion from planned parenthood so the body parts can be sold for a profit.

l_voated_today ago

Pretty interesting, if they aren't giving even a hit of a reason it's got to be something fucked up.

HillBoulder ago

This much secrecy and the lack of involvement from local law enforced can mean only one thing in New Mexico. Little green men

satisfyinghump ago

More likely then E.Ts, would be a sun flare that would disrupt normal civilization.

Atarian ago

We're in a solar minimum, that would be unlikely.

Dysnomia ago

Not really. The minimum mkes Earth's shields weaker. So even weaker solar flares could disrupt civilization.

Atarian ago

Are you sure?

NakedWarrior ago

One can still hope, c'mon Carrington CME

Atarian ago

Yeah, fingers crossed

DependasaurusRex ago

And by that you mean "evil brown men," I am in complete agreement.

They are probably trying fo extract the helium for balloons, and any oil they can fin to cook their empanadas with, as is part and parcel.

HillBoulder ago

I'd trust an alien before a mussi

DependasaurusRex ago

Mayhaps, but only slightly. It could easily be either or, and neither should be here as they are incompatible.

HillBoulder ago

I don't doubt the existence of anything. I certainly can't blame people for doubting all the same.

srgmpdns ago

updated report:

https://www.kvia.com/news/top-stories/closure-of-national-solar-observatory-remains-shrouded-in-mystery/793035021

Bizarre... you'd think they'd at least have a plausible cover story.

butt_mugger5000 ago

I heard the chinese were using some antenaee there to spy on US weapons tests facility nearby at white sands

srgmpdns ago

[citation required]

... and why would that necessitate closing the Post Office?

SchlangeHatRecht ago

Sturgeon told ABC 7 that he did not know who ordered the evacuation, adding "We remain suspended until we are allowed to return."

He accepted the order from someone. Makes no sense

Chempergrill ago

Thanks.

"They [FBI] spoke with my sergeant initially and they said that they would be down for a few days so that could be anywhere from a few days to months, from my past experience," said Sheriff Benny House.

They somehow know in advance it will take a couple days, so a standoff is unlikely. Crime scene maybe?

canbot ago

Active investigation.

un1ty ago

Then why are there multiple closures?

Yup.

Spaceweather.eu is also down. And SOHO will be being "updated" for the next few weeks.

Remember those videos of UFOs around the sun? I remember.
