On June 7, 2011 the Sun unleashed an M-2 (medium-sized) solar flare with a spectacular coronal mass ejection (CME). The large cloud of particles mushroomed up and fell back down looking as if it covered an area almost half the solar surface.
SDO observed the flare's peak at 1:41 AM ET. SDO recorded these images in extreme ultraviolet light that show a very large eruption of cool gas. It is somewhat unique because at many places in the eruption there seems to be even cooler material -- at temperatures less than 80,000 K.
This video uses the full-resolution 4096 x 4096 pixel images at a 1 minute time cadence and to provide the highest quality, finest detail version possible. It also shows the event in multiple wavelengths.

Make SURE you have the CC button on when you watch. Fantastic!
Awesome to think that some of the mass expelled from the sun comes down Earth's poles, spreads into our atmosphere; we breathe it in and it becomes part of us. I think I will go out side and welcome a few Sun particles to the humble abode of my body. I can just hear them sighing now - Ah- finally a cool spot!
Absolutely incredible! An amazing flare in itself, but top it with a view of it such as we've never had before.
@Neton16 Simply stunning! The contrast on the shock wave is particularly striking in the 171A bandpass.
This is awesome. I just love stuff that has to do with space. Thanks for posting.
Wow! Nicely put together!
@BRANSCOMBEx The next solar maximum is currently predicted for late 2013 or 2014. Solar maximum is usually associated with a higher rate of coronal mass ejections, which can indeed cause electrical disruptions to an unprotected power grid. But satellites such as ACE give advance warning of CMEs, and utility companies can then power down the grids to protect them.
And from there we derive. Incredible seeders of life.
I think the resolution is just amazing!
I love this channel.
Nice informative video. Thanks for sharing with us.
such footage.. brilliant
Fascinating stuff. It appears that a lot of the energy is sucked back into the sun. I have read many books on how the sun works but none have anywhere near come close to satisfy my mind. The sun is a great wonder that will kill us all in the end.Great video.
Simply amazing...
wow! Excellent video.
i like how they show you the wavelength
Spectacular, and a little frightening!
@darthukas congrats!
lots of people commenting from 7-9 years ago but here in 2020 im crying
This was the super flare of mid June. The surface area affected by the eruption was immense and very interesting to see, but the amount of plasma sent on a trajectory into space escaping the Sun's gravity was also huge (nearly as big as a planet or moon). It missed us entirely... but if it didn't? well...
That is beautiful
Incredible.
very interesting thanks
real cool! how often does this occur on the sun?
absolutly spectacular...
@BRANSCOMBEx Actually, scientists are amazed of the fact that the Sun will seeming go into an unusually passive mode for the next several years
Interesting, Thank You People.
The power of life.
maybe if you showed the replay in a few more colors i'd be able to understand whats going on here
near this at 2012!
What is the piece of music used in this video ?
Wow I really learned alot from the sun
Epic video. Name of music please?
@scduk100 That is either sarcasm or showing complete idiocy. PS its neutrinos. Near massless particles going at near light speed....SO arrived just after 6 minutes from the coronal mass ejection. Except coronal mass ejections are not associated with CRMs.
PENSÉ QUE LUEGO DE CARL SAGAN NADA ME ATRAPARÍA TANTO NI ME SORPRENDERÍA COMO EN AQUELLAS NOCHES DE VERANO EN LA DÉCADA DE LOS 80´ . QUE EN PAZ DESCANSE Y DISFRUTE ALLÍ A DONDE PERTENECE. EN SU COSMOS.
PLEASE tell us more about the upcoming SOLAR MAXIMUM in 2012... Will world wide power be disrupted??
Sure more hints found from our Nature.
@advantage73 THE POWER THAT GIVE LIFES .
I wonder how much energy is released in that flare??? Watching now in 2020...
BEUTIFULL
Omg nothing can destroy the sun is just incredible
@toastsandwich Thank you!
WOW!
How possible without Sun to know direction in jungle
What would happen if I was at the beach?
why do's the sun look so dark ????
Wow
did you noticed the massive shockwave!?
@BRANSCOMBEx It's all comes down to whether the combination of conditions come together to create a "perfect storm". The only difference between Solar Maximum and Solar Minimum is the probability or frequency of events. At any day at any time, if the Sun emits a CME of sufficient intensity directly at the Earth we could have a technological disaster as global power and electronic systems succumb to the onslaught of the CME interacting with the Magnetosphere.
BOLLA DE FUEGO☀️🔥

Looks like someone ate too many asterioids... That's a big steaming hot ball of farts
A means Kelvin. A scientific measurement of extreme temperatures.
with this video, we can save planet earth from global warming!
what are the dark spots on this creep hottest or coolest
Hello NASA sun is so nice
Previous commenter is insane!
So why do we have an energy crisis here ? !!!
Looks like someone ate to many asteroids..
精彩～
Carl orff carmina Burrana would have been an even better music score.
Damn NASA, you scary. LOL
2020? Any1?
The sun is creepy
2020
damn sun you scary
SPUTNIK ARYABHATA
Got any tums
Hiralal Hi
💙💀💙
hot
10-th

@LukeCoulson Lol make sure u talk to doctor cos that tan might also give you cancer :) I dont think you want a 2nd head on you :)
BLAME IT ON AL GORE !
So fake
