00:00Dual solar fury. A giant tornado and a massive eruption. Welcome to an unprecedented celestial
00:06event. For the first time ever, a photographer has captured a giant solar tornado and a massive
00:12plasma eruption happening at the same time. It's a sight that, even for the most seasoned
00:17astronomers, is nearly impossible to witness. The images, taken by Romanian researcher Maximilian
00:23Theodore Skew, show the sun at its most active. The main protagonist, a colossal solar tornado,
00:31rose to a height of 130,000 kilometers, a size that exceeds 10 stacked Earths. Although they look
00:37like terrestrial tornadoes, these are actually filaments of ionized gas, or plasma, rotating at
00:43a fixed point, anchored by the sun's intense magnetic fields. Scientists had been monitoring
00:48this phenomenon for days, but its size was exceptional. Y di Manera, in Esperata, una di Plasma,
00:56conocida como, Promenencia Eruptiva. Simultaneously and unexpectedly, a plasma eruption, known as an
01:03eruptive prominence, emerged. It's a flare of plasma that detaches from the sun's surface,
01:09reaching a width of 200,000 kilometers. These two phenomena, although independent, share the same
01:15origin. Disturbances in the sun's powerful magnetic field, fortunately, scientists confirmed that the
01:22eruption was not headed toward Earth, which means, there was no risk of interference with our satellites
01:27or communications. This amazing event occurs during the most active point of the 11-year solar cycle,
01:34known as solar maximum. During this period, the sun becomes particularly dynamic, offering researchers
01:40and amateurs a unique opportunity to see its power in action. Teodorescu's feat is not only a testament to
01:47the beauty and ferocity of our sun, but also a reminder of the constant activity taking place in
01:52our solar system. It is a majestic spectacle, and without a doubt, the most dynamic thing we can
01:58observe in the sky. Money expires.
