Video taken in ultraviolet light by the TRACE satellite. Following a solar flare, you can see many loops brighten. The loops are due to magnetic fields.

  • Cool!

  • twice in the last 150 years we have been hit by a mass coronal ejection powerful enough to destroy most modern electronic devices we currently use. What are the chances of it happening again soon, better than winning the lottery . what would happen if most of the machines were rendered broken overnight, well not good. Does any one care about this indisputable fact , appears only a few do. What happens when a asteroid falls into the sum,? Does this maybe have anything to do with sun spots ?

  • wow realy wow

  • The Sun is an everage sized star, with a surface temperature of more than 11,000 degrees F. The Sun is more than 1,300,000 times the Earth's volume.

  • These solar flares will be our energy soruce in the future of technology. far beyond any of our lives away. our huge space machines will harness these immense energy explosions that the sun gives off and create it into usable fuel.

  • Damn that's trippy
