Having a Solar Blast - Zoom

The Sun unleashed an M-2 (medium-sized) solar flare with a spectacular coronal mass ejection (CME) on June 7, 2011. The large cloud of particles mushroomed up and fell back down looking as if it covered an area of almost half the solar surface. The Solar Dynamic Observatory (SDO) observed the flare's peak at 1:41 AM ET. SDO recorded these images in extreme ultraviolet light that show a very large eruption of cool gas.

It is truly incomprehensible how titanic that blast is. It feels wrong to even call it a blast, that is a planet-busting, apocalyptic event right there. So majestic and yet so utterly powerful, so terrifying and so nurturing. Thank you sun

mercury: here we go again

An explosion bigger than our entire planet.

The sun to the exploding plasma:

“Come here! Get over here!!!”

Title sounds like clickbait, but this can really be called a blast - instantly liked. Thank you!

WOAH- that's at least 10 times bigger than Jupiter!

Probably more energy released in that quick burst than humanity used in it’s entirety

The Mayan prophecy of 2012 was correct. However, due to the passage of time, errors occurred, and the Earth was not in that position at the time. With this in mind, I decided to watch the movie ``2012''.

Sun shoots a solar flare and the saturn's magnetosphere protects the flare

[internetstrangerstrangerofweb]

Sun pretty much had a puke and rally moment all over itself

[BlueDef]

I have a question, Had this blast been directed at earth, what would’ve been the consequences?

En julio de 2012, estuvimos muy cerca de recibir de manera directa, una EMC tipo Carrington que nos hubiera enviado de regreso a mediados del siglo XIX.
Los calentologos, consideran al sol, como un foco de 100W que no tiene ningún efecto, sobre el clima de la tierra.
Debemos estar atentos, el sol, tiene que ver en todo, frío, calor, lluvia, etc.

[lukeisdigital]

Did us Earthlings feel any effects from this?

[verdi]

We need to calm that star down in the future.

The hell is coming from the sun solar flares fires toward planet earth
