☀️ 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

SOT/Hinode • Solar Prominence 10.3.2021 • Gas in the prominence moves up and down, showing the waves are propagating along magnetic field lines. It is thought that this wave may carry energy from the photosphere to the corona and that the energy heats the corona. 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 fin

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.

10x the diameter of Earth, this solar prominence rising up above the Sun's surface was spotted by our Solar Dynamics Observatory last week. Prominences are unstable clouds of cooler plasma suspended above the Sun by strong magnetic forces. They often fall apart after a few days.

• IRIS • Forked Solar Prominence 12.9.2020 • This prominence was captured in 304 Angstroms by the IRIS satellite in 2014. It formed just over the eastern limb of the sun and lasted over an hour before it was caught by the magnetic flow and pulled back into the sun. A solar prominence (also known as a filament when viewed against the solar disk) is a large, bright feature extending outward from the Sun's surface. Prominences are anchored to the Sun's surface in the photosphere, and extend outward
