400 times larger than Jupiter (fireball from sun)

Impressive.  At 12:48 UTC today, the Sun expelled a Monster Fireball 400 times bigger than Jupiter.  BTW, which planet is that lower right hand side?

You are welcome, Dianna.  What amazes me is how solid looking this ejection is.  Freaky.

Thank you, Kim, for posting... the need to know versus the OMG, I know,... is getting a little frazzled.

You are welcome, Shadow :)

Yes it does look like it's getting toasted!  According to a youtube video, they claim this one will hit the earth on 4/10/11 (don't know if this is the truth)

In the past, most would scream NIBIRU!  But, now who knows which one it is.  Kind of looks like it's about to be toasted from that perspective.

I give up.  Which one is it.
