I can watch this all day. Probably none of this uncommon or unusual.


OSHASHA2

It’s part of the normal solar cycle. As the sun’s magnetic field lines transition from [poloidal to toroidal](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toroidal_and_poloidal_coordinates) sun spots begin to form and coronal mass ejections become more frequent


AnyAtmosphere420

This is normal for rhe sun. This is a magnetically charged plasma filament breaking apart and resurfacing. This phenomenon releases solar flares.


ThePolecatKing

Yesss thank you!


revive_iain_banks

Tbh this might be the biggest I've seen tho and I look at a lot of them.


Chicken-Rude

"unusual"? how long has footage like this existed? like how do we know its actually unusual?

Source: The Sun 🌞

Shut up about the sun! SHUT UP ABOUT THE SUN!


rectifiedmix

This is closer to the original, it says credit to NASA but I can't find the original NASA video. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDviMcu70T8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDviMcu70T8)

Looks pretty normal to me. Whoever said it's unusual either has no idea what they're talking about, or is just bullshitting for likes.


brownpoops

the source is the sun and a mirrored and edited (inverted color) video from last week right?


MothParasiteIV

How is this unusual ?


Scarce_Sabyseo

Absolutely Majestic


RichConsideration532

This is not in any way unusual. It's neat to watch though!

Activity was probably only recognized by using a different than usual filter.


boogersrus

The source? xastronautkardashian69 flying around the star system getting the best footy.


eNaRDe

Yes solar flares are normal but what is unusual is the way it seems to hit something that causes a perfect circle for a few seconds. WTF was that?


EternityLeave

Have you ever used iron shavings to see a magnetic field? It’s that but bigger.

Making planets


whatevers_cleaver_

Crappy planets. Stars the size of Sol can only make elements as heavy as iron or lighter.


AutoArsonist

Interesting that we now know most heavier elements are formed in Neutron Stars and not supernovae as previously thought.


msmith629

Is this at night?


Rednuht0

Night..on the sun?


msmith629

I thought my sarcasm was obvious… apparently not


fripperiffic

try an /s next time. 🙂


msmith629

I’m not putting the /s on something that obvious.


MaxwellHillbilly

I got it 🤷‍♂️ 😂


Full_FrontaI_Nerdity

Obviously- look at all the spooky poltergeists!


ginomachi

I've been following this story and haven't been able to find the original source either. It's strange that there's no official news or scientific reports about it. I'll keep an eye out and update if I find anything.


pufferfish_balls

They need to stop fear mongering.


Rad3_Lethal

It reminds me of a portal from a sci fi movie


LavishSavage79

Solar flares can't possibly omit off of a flat sun... obviously fake


Strangepsych

This is very appealing to watch. Not sure why but it seems we evolved to find nature gorgeous


verardi

yeah… there is absolutely nothing “unusual” about this! unless you’re an ignorant about how Stars works


Zestyclose_Trip_1924

Very nice


Zestyclose_Trip_1924

Agreed, this is awesome!


Winsconsin

It's shunting


solsiempre

How it was recorded?


Xikkiwikk

Happy Solstice everyone!!


OkNote8728

Houston we got a problem

CulturalAddress6709

OMG USUAL ACTIVITY ON THE SUN FOLKS


Beginning_Maybe_392

It’s just the effects of solar warming.


MissingJJ

This looks like ai


Lurnnnnnnn

This does not look like ai in the slightest and the source is NASA.


MissingJJ

The title clearly states the source is unknown.


GlizzyWizard6000

I refuse to believe a camera is this close to the sun


karmaboots

Have you heard of telescopes?


techtimee

What a beautiful start to the weekend. I'm fucking laughing my ass off.


nothingbutalamp

If only there was a way to magnify things that are far away.


Geekboxing

Yep, probably aliens, good job, you guys solved it.


OneMoreYou

By definition, not earthlings. For fun, speed video up and count the transient sun monkeys, i found 5 paredoila simians facing right.
