Comet hit the Sun?

comet-hit-the-sun

A comet just discovered by amateur astronomer Sergey Shurpakov is diving past the sun today, and it will probably not survive. Click here to view a movie of the death plunge recorded by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory–and check back for updates in the hours ahead! http://spaceweather.com/

 


A sunspot located just behind the sun’s eastern limb is crackling with flares. A C5-class eruption during the waning hours of May 9th hurled a spectacular coronal mass ejection into space: Extreme ultraviolet images of the explosion’s aftermath taken by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory are a must-see. Earth was not in the line of fire this time, but the active region is approaching the Earthside of the sun, so future blasts could be geoeffective. (SolarWatcher)
