NASA captured this image during a recent explosion. Scientists say the activity is a sign the sun is "waking up" and heading into another "solar maximum" cycle, according to Space.com.
Of course, another less realistic reason may be that the sun is dealing with an intergalactic break-up. Cheer up sun, there are more stars in the Milky Way.
A solar filament or explosion releases high-energy plasma which sometimes creates brilliant auroras on Earth and can threaten satellites. They "are formed in magnetic loops that hold relatively cool, dense gas suspended above the surface of the sun," said David Hathaway, a solar physicist at NASA on Spaceweather.com.
