SUNNY, THANK TOU FOR THE SUNSHINE BOUQUET

 Sunny, thank you for the sunshine bouquet:

The largest object in our solar system – our Sun – keeps objects large and small in their orbit, affecting everything from planets to dust with its immense size and magnetic presence. The Sun’s atmosphere, or corona, is a dynamic place where large explosions like solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CME) occur.⁣

The near-Earth Solar Dynamics Observatory captured this CME in September 2012, which traveled over 900 miles per second (1,448 kilometers per second), causing an aurora to appear.⁣

Swirling solar activity appears in shades of orange and yellow, with a large jet of orange and red from the bottom left of the image. The surface of the Sun is marked with yellow fissures encroaching on the blackness of space.⁣
