The gaseous material is flowing from a wide hole in the sun's atmosphere. It is, in fact, so wide that Earth could be inside the stream for days to come.

While being utterly terrified by him, you might enjoy a brief laugh at his expense.
@Nitrozac ~ ahh, comic art. In a second life would have chosen it instead of IT πΆ
hmmm...
"Whatβs driving [our?] alienation? Itβs what William Blake warned about. The abstraction of the real world and real human activities into mental constructs, which are then established as 'the real things' that we must interact with in order to succeed. "
