No leak from the Trump administration or tweets from Trump himself. Maybe the FBI isn't telling him about it.
 
But, the facility has been closed since the 6th. I think a coronal mass ejection would have reached Earth by now if it was going to.
 
So I just went outside to check, and I don't see the sun ANYWHERE! It's just gone.
 
Of the speculation I've seen, the explanation that seems to best explain the evacuation of the area and the secrecy is the idea that something fired from White Sands landed somewhere near there. Maybe there's undetonated explosive they need to deal with.

Sounds like a cover up !!!
 
I read rumors the investigation was centered around computers at the facility, like someone had hacked a government site or something like that. I don't know...

or maybe they found aliens or know we're all about to die. I'm gonna keep going about my business until I see an actual reason to believe otherwise.

I read that too. Like they found a STUXNET style attack. That wouldn't explain why they evacuated the area around the place though. Plus, you'd be grilling the employees, not evacuating them.
 
On Thursday September 6th, AURA made the decision to temporarily close Sunspot. The Sunspot Solar Observatory continues to work closely with AURA in order to allow for us to reopen as soon as possible. With the excitement this closure has generated, we hope you will come and visit us when we do reopen, and see for yourself the services we provide for science and public outreach in heliophysics. If you have any questions about the science we perform at the telescope, or about the outreach we provide through our Visitors Center, please contact our Director, Dr McAteer ([email protected]).

The town of Sunspot itself is very small, and all 12-15 residents were evacuated, as well as four employees at the observatory, five or six employees of AURA and employees of the post office (number unknown).
