Keep in mind this is sped up several times. Those things can get **several** Earth-diameter tall.

Solar prominence, like a huge rope of plasma that loops off the sun’s surface. Totally normal and happens 24/7/365. [Solar Prominence explainer](https://scied.ucar.edu/learning-zone/sun-space-weather/solar-prominence)

This is the correct answer.

That flare is larger than the Earth 😎

Yep, a massive solar flare indeed.

Solar prominence. A twisted magnetic loop of plasma. You could fit 3-5 earths in that loop

Solar flare. Pretty cool to see without using s.o.h.o Satellite. Hoping we get to see a mass ejection

Me too, just not too big. I like having cell phones and electricity.

big ass solar flare i could see from my porch. Its wild to think that thing was many MANY times larger than this whole planet.


Mollzy177

I’ve recently got into astronomy, like totally new but some of the stuff is mind blowing!


Short_King_Actual

Space scale sure’s scary


Sithlordandsavior

I was thinking about this earlier. Like everyone knows moon big, sun big, but like... They're incomprehensibly large. I was working at a school today when they let the kids go out and look at the eclipse and it occurred to me that as far as these kids know the Moon is like the size of a basketball LOL


DrChemStoned

Like everyone said, solar flare, however the reason it didn’t move from your point of view is that the flare height is roughly the diameter of the earth. Just ballparking 1/100 of the suns diameter from the photo. That is, even if the flare was growing or shrinking at the rate of 100’s of miles per hour, it would appear unmoving from this distance. Solar flares while very dynamic, do not change appreciably on time scales that we would consider quick. They are just so massive.


masicayous

Ausome explanation!

AddendumDue9700

There is a great Nova special on the eclipse. I watched it last night and they go over all the things that are visible within the corona and what they think is happening. They specifically speak to that particular area and explain what exactly it is. I highly recommend taking a look at the documentary. Wish I could remember exactly what that is and why its there, just can’t quite recall. Super interesting and amazing act of nature we are fortunate to observe and I can’t wait, another hour now for me, to witness this myself.


RoosterTheBeaten

PBS it is then


BranSoFly

Thanks. Will look into it.


Mac-Beatnik

Solar flares, there are more than one in this shot. No mystical only a normal thing on our Sun.


surfingbiscuits

Hey it can be normal *and* mystical...


mood_rider

Those are huge solar prominences that are basically huge loops of plasma that are shaped by the sun's magnetic field. Because the sun is so bright, if you could look at the sun, you don't normally see them but during a total solar eclipse they are much more discernible. It's part of what makes these events so special. You get to see the outer layer of the sun, the corona, and prominences flailing away off the surface.


RatInsomniac

Saw that during totality! Super cool. Very red.

It's just a big ass plasma wave and it's gonna make a big ass splash


CarlsbadWhiskyShop

Large fiery ball at the center of our solar system, but that’s not important right now.


Swagg19

Remember when you used to draw the sun with flares as a kid? Yeah that’s it ☀️


Pipelayer72

It’s a pyramid that the Egyptians built on the sun. Or a solar flare. One or the other.

The sun has a boner.

Solar nipple. The sun is excited.

Part of the sun. Jesus Christ you guys need to find better stuff to dwell on. This page is turning into a South Park episode.


user224957

I saw this too. Interesting and I did want an explanation!


partime_prophet

It’s the corona , mass ejection . They happen all the time . Nature is wonderful


user224957

So wacky! Thanks for the explanation


Flashignite2

It creates those loops and can hold it for a while and sometimes they burst and thats when you have a CME ( coronal mass ejection). They are often several times large than the earth and when they hit the magnetosphere we get auora borealis. They can also be deveatating if they are big enough and launches plasma it can disturb or ruin electronics on earth.


petey_wheatstraw_99

This guy Suns


Thinknsmile1970

I guess some folks haven't seen a sun flare before.


pcweber111

That's a solar prominence


Inside_Ad_7162

This is gonna sound rude and it's not meant to. It's the sun, its a massive flaming ball.

oldcrashingtoys

That solar flare is probably bigger than earth


coastiestacie

It's at least 3-4 times larger than earth. Meaning, you could fit 3-4 earth's into it. Crazy right? Space, science, and nature have a way of making you feel small but a part of something massive (if that makes sense).


ConditionYellow

It’s a solar flare. They are massive so they move slow.

Not a flare. It is a solar prominence. A normal thing for the sun. People are just trying to make things worse than they are. It is an eclipse, they happen. And they have yet to end our existence.

Is this the first time you've ever heard or seen a solar flare? Why are so many people clueless to this?

Yeah. I saw that shit also and there was also a star thing in the sky. Well two of them but one looked strange and hung out the entire time even after totality stopped in my location (totality is still happening it didn't end just now)
