From the video, I can’t see any evidence that the plasma ejection preceded the cometary impact.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

There is no correlation between the strike and the solar eruption; it was just a coincidence.

Right.

[silverleaf]

that was one huge honking comet

[freedumb2003]

captured a spectacular image of a comet diving into the sun just as a coronal mass ejection came out on the right side.

They had cameras in my bedroom?

[KoRn]

If that thing would have hit the Earth instead....

[NYCslicker]

This is George Bush’s fault.

[Cyman]

Lucky that comet was heading for the sun during the day. I am sure it would have missed it at night.

“Scientists, however, have yet to find a convincing physical connection between sun-grazing comets and coronal mass ejections.”

Lyin’ eyes won’t do?

[GreenHornet]

NASA has repeatedly stated that they cannot find any physical relation between star-grazing comets and coronal mass ejections.

I think it has something to do with cosmic beer goggles.

[Del Rapier]

“Welcome home.”

The Universe isn’t so random after all.

[TigersEye]

In December of last year, the sun was hit by an entire fleet of ice comets
that struck into the heart of the sun, ...

Been there, done that. ;^)

“Scientists, however, have yet to find a convincing physical connection between sun-grazing comets and coronal mass ejections.”

If he paraphrases and repeats this a few more times, it might seem even more strained.

Somebody doesn't have a clue about persuasion and the written word.

"...a bright comet, most likely from the Kreutz family of comets, which was discovered by amateur astronomer Sergey Shurpakov, slammed into the sun, but as it dove into it a coronal mass ejection blasted out. There is no correlation between the strike and the solar eruption; it was just a coincidence."

That last sentence is such utter bullsh!t even I can't believe it.

[hadit2here]

>>”There is no correlation between the strike and the solar eruption; it was just a coincidence.” <<

Yeah, right. Who ya gonna b’lieve, us or yer lyin’ eyes?

Well, I guess that it proves that correlation isn’t causation, huh?

>>”NASA officials also explained that they have proof, through the Solar Dynamics Observatory (a spacecraft that monitors the sun), that the solar eruption occurred prior to the collision with the comet.” <<

And the offishul NASA honchos do not believe in and will do anything they can to deny and denigrate the theory of the “electric universe”, which posits that comets have electrical charges that interact with the planets and the sun, among other things.

Since they can’t “see” (or acknowledge) the electrostatic charge of the comet that is interacting with the sun *before* it actually physically hits the corona and which could be the cause of the huge mass ejection of plasma, there has to be “no connection” between the two. Because if they accepted the electrical charges of cometary bodies, they’d have to revise their pet theories of comets being “snowballs” of different flavors of “ice” that is “blown off” the snowball by the solar wind.

Between James Hanson and NASA’s lying about climate, and the cover ups of many things that have been found/seen on Mars by the rovers, I find it hard to give much credence to anything NASA puts out unless it’s confirmed by other ‘non-biased’ parties or experts. Even then, I wonder how much is true.
