Solar Flare

Now most of us go about our lives never thinking of this stuff.

But have a look at this animatted gif of a huge Solar Flare that just happened.

Make sure you watch it all.

Remember the sun is like 109 times larger than Earth.

I hope one that big is not directed at us..

Huge Solar Flare

We should get a better idea in a few days if there's a nasty sunspot around the edge...

Wow - amazing......
