A large eruption occurs off the limb of the Sun in this image sequence, and you can see the solar prominence in the lower right. ☀️ Prominences appear when relatively cooler gas from lower layers of the Sun’s atmosphere is trapped in a magnetic field loop that extends outward from the Sun’s surface, into the hotter corona.

HINODE • Solar Prominence 3.5.2022 • A prominence is cool gas floating in the solar atmosphere. The Solar Optical Telescope installed on the solar observing satellite “Hinode” showed that a prominence is not static; it is a collection of unimaginably violently churning fine scale structures. If you watch the “Hinode” video closely, you can see many phenomena such as up-and-down motions, oscillations, swirls, and rising black voids sweeping the prominence.

• A Prominence Bubble • This high resolution movie of a solar prominence highlights a phenomena called prominence bubbles. In regions where the Sun's magnetic field reverses sign, puffs of chromospheric material can be suspended above the Sun's surface. Sometimes, strong magnetic fields containing hot gas can occur under these puffs, forming what looks like a dome-shaped void. This void, called a magnetic bubble, can push up into the prominence material forming a bright ridge as seen in this mov

☀️ A Prominence Hovers Over the Sun!⁠ ⁠ This breathtaking video of a solar prominence, a giant loop of plasma rising above the Sun’s surface, was captured on August 10, 2025.⁠ ⁠ Prominences are massive structures of plasma held in place by the Sun’s powerful magnetic fields. They can stretch for thousands of kilometers into the solar corona, sometimes lasting for weeks. From Earth, they look like fiery arcs — reminders of the incredible energy our star constantly releases. 🌞🔥⁠ ⁠ Credits: simon

A Leaky Solar Prominence (APOD: 2025 Aug 26) Video Credit & Copyright: Andrea Girones https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap250826.html Explanation: What's hovering above the Sun? A solar prominence. A prominence is a crest of hot gas expelled from the Sun's surface that is held aloft by the Sun's magnetic field. Prominences can last for days, can suddenly explode into space, or just fall back to the Sun. What decides a prominence's fate is how the Sun's complex magnetic field changes -- the field's dire

🌞 😱 Sun news for December 26, 2023: Solar Max is on its way 🤩 👏 Today’s top news: For the past 24 hours, the sun has been relatively calm. But Solar Max is on its way, now expected in 2024. Forecasters were predicting 2025 for the peak of the current 11-year sun cycle, Cycle 25. But the current cycle has already outpaced predictions, both in sunspot number and in the number of larger M and X flares. 🤔 So the past day has been C flares only. But remember the 3 M flares of the day before? And

It's been a busy day on the #sun. Our star unleashed 4 M (moderate) #flares over the past 24 hours, alongside this spectacular #prominence eruption early this morning. Plus, a stream of high-speed #solarwind triggered G3 (strong) geomagnetic storming at Earth earlier today.

Here is what the terms mean: * Prominence Liftoff / Prominence Eruption: * A solar prominence is a huge, bright feature made of cool, dense plasma (electrically charged gas) that extends outward from the Sun's surface, often in a loop shape, held up by the Sun's magnetic field. * A Liftoff or Eruption is when this prominence breaks free from the Sun,

Space | Cosmos | Galaxy on Instagram: "A Solar Prominence is a large, bright, looped feature of plasma extending from the Sun's surface into the corona, held in place by magnetic fields. These structures can be hundreds of thousands of miles long and may last for days or months, but if they become unstable, they can erupt and release plasma into space. Credits: @simon2940"
