Bastille Day Solar Slinky • Anatomy of a Gargantuan Sun Tempest 30.7.2021 VIDEO: A major solar flare produces an arcade resembling a slinky. The X5.7 flare occurred at 10:03UT on 14 July 2000, in Active Region 9077, observed by TRACE in its 195Å pass band. A filament in the center of the region destabilizes and is seen lifting off. Following this mass ejection, an arcade of magnetic fields lights up, cooling down from many millions of degrees. The field of view is 230,000 by 170,000 km. Credit:
