Explanation: A long solar filament stretches across the relatively calm surface of the Sun in this telescopic snap shot from April 27. The negative or inverted narrowband image was made in the light of ionized hydrogen atoms. Seen at the upper left, the magnificent curtain of magnetized plasma towers above surface and actually reaches beyond the Sun's edge. How long is the solar filament? About as long as the distance from Earth to Moon, illustrated by the scale insert at the left. Tracking toward the right across the solar disk a day later the long filament erupted, lifting away from the Sun's surface. Monitored by Sun staring satellites, a coronal mass ejection was also blasted from the site but is expected to swing wide of our fair planet.

Great ball(s) of fire!

Well, once science discovers God then great discoveries will be made. I know to me seems like a oxymoron but it is true.
Proof once again, to the atheist. The goodness of others, the miracle of life, the universe and all its majesty on up to Paradise. All the evidence needed! Faithfully, Gemma
go at night, it’s cooler!
Where are the spots?
Be sure to do it at night.
Obviously you’ve never ridden a school bus full of kids after a Taco Bell field trip. ;’)
True statement.
In winter.
