Watch two plumes of ‘dark’ plasma explode from the sun and send solar storm towards Earth (video)

Watch two plumes of ‘dark’ plasma explode from the sun and send solar storm towards Earth (video)

Two loops of “dark” plasma exploded from the sun yesterday (July 21), and a NASA spacecraft caught it on video.  NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) watched as two loops of cool, dense plasma erupted from the sun’s surface, looking eerily similar to a pair of dementors from Harry Potter hovering over the sun.  However, instead
