Yesterday morning, a monolithic blast take placed on the sun, creating a solar flare and explosion of high energy particles.
NASA later released footage of the aspect, described by the Geeked on Goddard blog as being "like a fountain of plasma that blasts out of the solar surface, spreads outward, and collapses to splat back down." The video depicts darker, comparatively cool material splattering back onto the sun's surface as it's drawn in by the powerful gravitational pull of the sun.
For anyone disturbed about the potential radiation that take places from a natural event of this sort, the Atlantic Wire reports that due to the sun's present positioning, the radiation should not have a considerable effect when it arrives at the earth Wednesday or Thursday.
As NASA scientist C. Alex Young declared it, "It's not necessarily anything spectacular as far as space weather. It's just really, really beautiful."
