10K views · 348 reactions | On Feb, 20th, a solar tornado exploded. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded this video of the event. What happened is this: The swirling tempest of magnetized plasma became unstable when the twister twisted a bit too much. Magnetic fields crissed, crossed, and exploded in a process known as "magnetic re-connection." The flying debris will not hit our planet; the blast was too far off the sun-Earth line. | Spaceweather.com | Facebook
