Subject: Wow! An unusually beautiful solar blast....
Space Weather News for June 9, 2002

SOLAR BLAST: The ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory recorded an
unusually beautiful eruption on the Sun today. The giant "prominence" was
bigger than 50 planet Earths from end to end. Visit SpaceWeather.com and
see for yourself.
Also, DON'T FORGET THE SOLAR ECLIPSE! Across much of North America on
Monday, June 10th, the setting Sun will become a strange-looking crescent
when the Moon glides in front of our star. Follow the links at
SpaceWeather.com for more information, including eclipse-safe observing
tips.
WARNING: Never stare directly at the Sun. And never, ever look at the Sun
through an unfiltered telescope. Even during an eclipse the Sun can damage
your eyes.
