Solar Explosion |
Yesterday there was a huge explosion on the sun, visible from Earth along the rim of the solar disk. The image at right (of 304 angstrom luminosity) was captured by the Goddard Space Flight Center on a solar telescope (I'm not sure which one).
There's a movie of it here. The
SpaceWeather site has a little more on it, including links to other imagery, and another movie in ultraviolet wavelengths.
Now we just need a spacecraft to fly through that loop... THAT would be cool.
