The dark, fiery-looking “plume” rising from the Sun’s edge is called a solar prominence or filament (depending on the viewing angle). It’s a large, bright, gaseous feature that extends outward from the Sun’s surface (the photosphere) into the corona, which is the outer solar atmosphere.

Kinda mind-boggling. Needs banana (or earth) for scale. I also want to know if the video is sped up. I feel like it is, but what do I know?

Looks like some solute joining a field of fur.

looking at the sun, it reminds me of Dune for some reason. it doesn’t even look that dangerous or hot yet it could probably vaporize any of us from that distance.

This doesn’t need music. Unless the music was captured by a microphone right next to this flare 🤔🤦

The sun is white when I look at it. “Sun” in this picture is black. You’re not fooling anyone. /s

The “plume” in the beginning looks like my soul, slowly getting sucked out by life.

This is what the surface of the sun looks like.
Or
This is how the surface of the sun looks.
Depends on what youre trying to describe.
Obviously, what you meant was perfectly clear and understood. I only pointed it out, in case you were a non-native (or native for that matter) speaker who might want to improve their English.

How does the camera not melt from the heat?
Doesn’t look hot at all.

Sun in the winter

Wow…
Does it really have a surface tho? It’s all fire
I need a dollar bill or something next to the flare to understand the scale
This was filmed during the night because otherwise the footage would be way too bright…
