https://www.youtube.com/THORnews On the early Friday morning of July 25th, 2014 I was driving deep into East Texas. First I spied a bright and twinkly Venus, which is not strange or out of the ordinary. Second, I spotted a gorgeous pink & orange sky hovering over the trees, which is also not unusual at Sunrise, but #3 gobbstopped my already gobstoppied-ness, The Sun looked like a Lava Lamp that was red, yellow, orange and violet pouring out pure red. It looked amazing and unreal.

What would cause the Sun to look like this? Iron Oxide Oxford Comma Dust? Pollution? Binary companion flirtations? 

Universe Today says "At sunset, light must travel farther through the atmosphere before it gets to you, so more of it is reflected and scattered and the sun appears dimmer. The color of the sun itself appears to change, first to orange and then to red because even more of the short wavelength blues and greens are now scattered and only the longer wavelengths(reds, oranges) are left to be seen."

...but I've never seen it look like that with Red & Violet just oozing out of it. Crazy indeed! 

Weirdest Double Peaked Minimal Solar Maximum ever. 

Stay tuned!

God Bless Everyone,
