Halloween Solar Storms from SOHO/EIT, 195 Angstroms
This view from SOHO/EIT in the 195 Angstrom band, shows the multitude of solar flares released in the Fall of 2003 as a group of active regions rotated back into view. This movie is synchronized to play with animation IDs 2960 (http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a000000/a002900/a002960) and 2961 (http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a000000/a002900/a002961). For more information on how X-ray solar flares are classified (B, C, M, X), visit (http://www.spaceweather.com/glossary/flareclasses.html).
A quiet time before the next big solar events...
