Detached prominence off the solar limb = awesomeness... click for bigger



Quote:
As for size, see that dark elongated sunspot near the base of the prominence, just to the right of the bigger, speckly one? That spot is roughly twice the size of the Earth.


The small spot is that big... and teh prominence can be up to 10 Billion tons of material.
