Solar Tornado

That long skinny prominence we saw near the N pole for several days last week – turns out it was a solar tornado. It was many thousands of miles tall. It’s gone now, but you can read about it today on Space Weather.

Thanks Rachel! It appeared to be just a very tall, very thin spire prominence – at times it was so thin I thought it was disappearing. Actually there was also another shorter spire nearby. And others here saw at least the tall one – Kent and Ted, maybe others. Next time we’ll have to make a louder announcement! Roy On Mar 20, 2023, at 1:23 PM, Rachel V Perry <rachelvperry@...> wrote:
