A Partial Eclipse of an Active Sun
This video captures a partial solar eclipse, with the Moon blocking part of the Sun. A large solar prominence, made of hot plasma, hovers and shimmers over the Sun's edge. Part of the prominence is visible falling back towards the Sun. The video also shows the Sun's active surface, with sunspots visible.
