“A Twisted Solar Eruptive Prominence” was a movie, or a file NASA no longer keeps, so there's no still picture of it to put on this card.
See it on NASA's siteTen Earths could fit in the 'claw' of this eruptive prominence on the Sun. This half-hour time-lapse shows a huge prominence moving out from our star. Its twisted figure-eight shape indicates a complex magnetic field threading through the emerging solar particles.
