SOMETHING FLARE-Y THIS WAY COMES: For the second time in a week, a significant CME has billowed away from the farside of the sun. The latest appeared during the early hours of Jan.12th following an M3.3-class flare just behind the sun’s eastern limb. These events are connected. An actively flaring sunspot group is about to emerge as the sun’s rotation turns it to face Earth later this week.
The animations reflect the scale of the activity.
