Monster ProminenceCredit: NASA/SDONASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured this view of a powerful M3.6 Class solar flare on Feb. 24, 2011 during a 90-minute sun storm. NASA scientists called the display a "monster prominence" that kicked up a huge plasma wave. end quote from:http://www.space.com/30-amazing-sun-photos-space.html The good thing about this storm was that it was NOT directed towards Earth. If it had been it would likely have been much worse than the storm last week which was directed at Earth and was a Level 3 Solar Storm
