Yesterday NASA managed to capture the clearest-yet footage of a solar flare in process after magnetic fields on the Sun’s northeastern curve exploded in huge streams of plasma and sun stuff. The footage only accounts for about five seconds of explosion, but it’s very, very cool, both in and out of time-lapse.
The stuff was captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory when the explosion took place – around 17h45 UT.
The eruption was reasonably minor in terms of the solar flares we’ve seen in the past couple of years, but it is to date the most spectacular footage of a solar flare that’s been captured. Also the flare wasn’t pointed towards earth when it happened, so we don’t need to worry too much about radiation/super powers.
