This still from SDO caught the action in freeze-frame splendor when the Sun popped off two events at once (Jan. 28, 2011). A filament on the left side became unstable and erupted, while an M-1 flare and a coronal mass ejection on the right blasted into space.

I tell you, that sun of ours is one bright orange ball of pure crazy.
