This morning around 1 a.m. UT, magnetic fields on the sun&#8217;s eastern limb became unstable and erupted, producing one of the most spectacular explosions of the year. NASA&#8217;s Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the action:<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/flare.php\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The explosion did not cause a solar flare (a flash of electromagnetic radiation) but it did hurl a massive cloud of magnetized plasma into space. Because of the blast site&#8217;s location on the eastern limb, the cloud will not hit Earth. There won&#8217;t be any geomagnetic storms or auroras.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new solar cycle antes up a massive CME for Fathers day.
