Baelaroness on December 26, 2025 7:11 am This looks like a clip from the latest Sci-fi blockbuster, very cool.

CipherWeaver on December 26, 2025 7:21 am I know you don’t want to be disturbed except if it’s Mr. Shadow, and it’s Mr. Shadow on the line.

Grim_Trigger_451 on December 26, 2025 7:32 am I realize that tech has come along way, but I sometimes wonder what kind of artistic license gets into these releases.
blackninjar87 on December 26, 2025 7:34 am Sadly as someone that loved science and technology I don’t believe any image coming from NASA anymore especially now AI can just generate shit. Even if this is real, the damage has already been done and we can’t close Pandora’s box.

mothandravenstudio on December 26, 2025 7:47 am I could have imagined it looking like many things. Eldrich horror was not one of them.
drift_poet on December 26, 2025 7:49 am i’m super skeptical this is real. can anyone convince me? i want to believe cause that would be metal.
deadblackgoose on December 26, 2025 7:49 am I have seen a lot of things in the internet and for some reason watching that is very unsettling to me.
Malu_TE on December 26, 2025 7:56 am Can someone help me get a visual on the size of this? It just looks like a blast of energy until I register that it’s the actual sun I’m looking at.

Equal measures exhilarating and frightening.
Glad it wasn’t pointed at the camera.

Our Sun casually coughing up an Earth-sized flare

But we got fuzzy dot for 3I…

OP, drop a video source or a link or something?

How many earths could you fit in that section of the sun?

Are we sure this is *our* sun…?
Anyone who played Prey is very uncomfortable right now.
