SolarHam.com | Farside Eruption and Coronal Mass Ejection CME (8/10/2012)


An eruption on the farside of the Sun near old regions 1530-1532 produced a bright Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) this morning. This movie by STEREO Ahead EUVI 195 and STEREO Behind COR2, shows the plasma cloud blasting away from the Sun. Because this was a farsided event, the CME will not be Earth directed.
