A close look at this active region over an 18-hour period (May 5, 2007) by STEREO (Behind) shows a remarkable series of what scientists call "surges" above the solar surface. Material is being thrust out and back along magnetic field lines and is activating a solar filament. With this detailed view and high frame rate we can watch the material surge out and back at least twice. The material (at about 60,000 degree C.) is being imaged in extreme ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 304 Angstroms.
And here we are killing ourselves off while the sun is farting massive nuclear bombs everyday... makes you wonder, uh?

the temperature is 6'000 degrees, not 60'000.
(If it were 60'000 we'd be in serious trouble ;-))
