Sun hurled two bright CMEs into space, both non-Earthbound

New region 1611 rotated into view on the east limb and produced a moderate M1.7 flare at 02:23 UTC and a type II radio sweep shortly after, on November 8, 2012. Flare generated bright coronal mass ejection (CME) in eastward direction which means that it would not be geoeffective.
Bellow is the video by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory showing the extreme UV flash caused by flare-generated CME.
