With splash screen, “The end game has begun”
The sun is highly active, with multiple coronal mass ejections (CMEs) impacting the solar system. A CME from a filament eruption is expected to hit Earth around 19th or 20th February, coinciding with eclipse season and the Saturn-Neptune conjunction. This heightened solar activity, combined with planetary alignments, could potentially lead to increased earthquake activity and geomagnetic storms.
A G2 geomagnetic storm, caused by a coronal hole and solar wind, is impacting Earth. This solar activity, coupled with a Saturn-Neptune conjunction, may increase the likelihood of significant earthquakes, particularly in the region near the recent magnitude 6.4 and 6.2 earthquakes. Additionally, a high-energy neutrino was detected by IceCube, coinciding with an annular solar eclipse.
A high-energy neutrino was detected coming from the constellations of Gemini, Taurus, and Orion, near the red giant Betelgeuse. This event coincides with a new moon and the start of a new lunar cycle, culminating in a total lunar eclipse visible from the Pacific Ocean.
