Two Coronal Mass Ejections Followed By a Pair Of Large Prominence Eruptions

Even when solar activity is classified at very low levels, it does not mean that the Sun is totally quiet. Two prominence eruptions were observed beginning at 21:00 UTC (Oct 22). The first event lifted off the northeast limb and was followed up by another eruption, this time off the southern limb beginning at 23:15 UTC. In both cases, any associated coronal mass ejection (CME) should be directed away from Earth. Two nice coronal mass ejections were observed following a pair of prominence eruptions. Because both occurred off the the north and south limbs respectively, they appear to be headed away from Earth. Thanks for watching! #solareruption #CME #prominence Images credit: GOES-16 SUVI, AIA/SDO, SOHO/LASCO, Music credit: YouTube Audio Library
