Spacecraft Sees Solar Storm Engulf Earth-First Time

This video is amazing and pretty creepy watching a solar flare move towards Earth and surround us.

It looks like we are a hop skip and a jump away from the sun. I didn't know those clouds are constantly flying around us. So as the sun grows and gets larger these storms will eventually rip us apart. You can see Venus really gets it too.

Wow. Very awesome. It's amazing to actually watch the storm coming - gives a totally different perspective to what I was imagining in my head.

Thanks for the post.

Awesome video
The sun truly dictates earth's activities.

It is a video from 2008 not current date just so you know.

I can't wait to see more videos from this view point. We are really mapping out our surroundings in space. Awesome video though.

Me too! So funny I thought a solar flare was a little tiny wave. I guess I was stereotyping them from an aurora...

It is absolutely amazing to see how the solar storm interacts with our planet. I was able to watch the NASA newscast yesterday and it is very exciting to think about the advancements that they are making towards monitoring and understanding the solar activity.

Great post!
