A Twisted Solar Eruptive Prominence

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

This time-lapse sequence shows a large eruptive prominence twisting away from the Sun. The prominence's twisted figure-eight shape indicates a complex magnetic field threading through the ejected solar particles. This event, where ten Earths could fit into its 'claw,' provides clues about the Sun's internal differential rotation and how it drives surface explosions.
