In 2012 Plasma from the Sun Was Mysteriously Sucked Up By a Unknown Thing - What was it really?

This has always been one of those mysterious captures that I've seen come and go throughout the years since it was first spotted.

When this thing takes off - the force displayed on the suns atmosphere is just insane.

Here's just a few small edits I did changing the exposure around as well as some cheesy animations pondering whether this is actually an alien entity - dark matter space entity like a space jellyfish, or is this an actual space craft re-fueling up? Hard to say for certain, and will likely never be solved until we're out there travelling space and time.

We'll likely need to convert to becoming robots in order for that to happen though.

Sadly, this thing is neither a space alien entity or a ufo refueling - it's something called " prominence " per the quoted text from the article link listed below. This comes from top notch scientists in the field so make sure you don't shoot the messenger here. Thanks to the hidden named commenter whose followed my account for quite sometime, always offering up some great feedback. Based on their comment to the original release of this video, I unlisted it to research it further and updated the posts accordingly.

" Telescope images captured of the sun on Monday (March 12) show what appears to be a planet-size shadowy object tethered to the sun by a dark filament. In the image sequence, a burst of brightly lit material can be seen erupting from the sun's surface surrounding the dark object, after which the orb detaches from the sun and shoots out into space.

The footage, a composite of images captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory and processed by scientists at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, has quickly garnered attention on YouTube, where viewers are suggesting it shows a UFO spacecraft refueling by sucking up solar plasma, or at the very least, the birth of a new planet.

However, according to NASA scientists, the feature is actually a little-understood, but frequently observed, type of solar activity called a "prominence," and the way it is situated beneath another solar feature gives it its otherworldy appearance. [See video]

The thread extending from the lower left edge of the sun in the video is known as a "prominence," a feature containing cooler, denser plasma than the surrounding 3.5-million-degree Fahrenheit corona, said Joseph Gurman, project scientist in the Solar Physics Laboratory at NASA Goddard. It isn't yet known exactly how prominences develop, but these dense plasma loops can extend from the sun's surface thousands of miles into space.

"When prominences are that extended in height above the limb [edge of the sun], it's usually a sign that they're about to erupt, as this one did," Gurman told Life's Little Mysteries. "
