June 28th Solar Prominence Eruption from GOES and SDO

Created a second eruption video today focused on the SE prominence eruption rotated 'upright. Also including the close up SDO AIA imagery in a 171Å/304Å overlay capture and a new soundtrack, "Mirror Moon."

June 28th Double Solar Prominence Eruption

Very eruptive day for dense plasma clouds floating in the corona.

GOES-19 providing the view. It is a little better at imaging prominence off the solar disk.

June 25th SW Prominence Eruption

I rotated this capture 90° for better viewing.

Eruptions should go UP!

X-Ray Flux Hype.

Developing regions on the EFD, with incoming AR on the limb. This should make for in interesting week!

June 16-17 Twenty-Four Hours of Non-Stop Solar Geyser Flares

These geyser flares are not always the most energetic variety of flaring, thou we have seen X class geysers before. It is still awesome to watch all that solar plasma being blasted up into the corona!

First capture is from SDO AIA. Second is GOES SUVI.

2024 October 3rd X9 Solar Flare

Both the SDO and IRIS satellites were watching 3842 at just the right time when a strong X9 Flare occured.

June 15th Prominence Eruption

Prominence on the limb are best viewed with GOES-19 SUVI in 304Å. This one was particularly elegant.

June 6th M1 Solar Flare and Partial Halo CME

Another glancing blow on the way.

We should catch the edge of that flux rope, but most of the material went east.

June 3rd X Class Solar Flare and Asymmetrical Halo CME

Many thanks to the #SDO #AIA team for providing such a view of our Star.

Coronagraph has a difference overlay and is repeated 4x.

June 2nd M3 Solar Flare and loose CME.

SDO AIA 171/304 blend.

Thank you AIA team!

Where would I be without you?

May 16th Double M Flare & Double CME

Very cool to see the northern M flare destabilize the southern flux rope into a second M flare.

CMEs are weak and slow, thou. Won't be much for geomagnetic storming. Something like a ten minute drizzle.

May 15th Filament Eruption CME

Not as robust as we would have hoped, yet still a beautiful eruption, front and center for our viewing pleasure.

Thanks to the SDO AIA team!

May 10th M5 Solar Flare and CME with Post Flare Arcades.

Not Earth directed, this time.

4436 has a few days before it is pointed right at us.
