Comet-Sun Impact Caught On Video

Posted by timothy on from the comet-denies-responsibility dept.

jomegat writes "NASA has released footage captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) showing a comet slamming into the surface of the sun. The impact created a huge splash as seen on the video, but the impact at the surface was blocked by an occluding disk that allows the SDO to image the sun's corona. It's still very impressive though!"

    The IPCC says they all agree. Even those who had to sue them to get off the agreeing list, you damn climate denier funded by oil companies!
