how large is large? a million mile diameter? 10 miles diameter? one hundred miles diameter? everywhere from below an hour to three hours. there is no longer something in my adventure to base an opinion of what effect some million stages might want to have on something large. i anticipate a similar is actual of in basic terms about all and multiple. extremely, the question might want to be how with out delay might want to it fragment, and into products how large? IE, the better the products, the faster the solar's warmth might want to get to the middle. as quickly because that is in products, then in basic terms about no time in any respect.

I would say that is a large solar flare or a prominence. It appears as a large spot because it is being seen more or less from directly above.

Looks to be a very highly magnetic sunspot, with prominences protruding around it. I've seen looser areas like that before; this one is very concentrated.

Cool. I never saw anything like that before. I assume it is a big flare or something.
