Massive solar eruption carves 60,000-mile-long 'canyon of fire' into the sun on Halloween night A powerful explosion from the sun briefly opened up an enormous valley on the solar surface that was more than twice as wide as the contiguous U.S. and seven times longer than Earth.

Ooooooooooooh! 😲

The Sun is always fascinating, and as we approach this cycle's maximum, it's getting *really* interesting. I can't wait to see what kind of data and images like this we're gonna get out of #DKIST!!
