NASA’s multi-spectral imaging reveals a Corona Mass Ejection and our Sun’s Magneto-Hydrodynamics in great detail. The detector itself becomes part of the visualization as energetic particles from the flare create a brief ‘snowstorm’ pattern, a raw imprint of plasma acceleration! The footage proves these events to be as stunning as they are terrifying!

Third Prize. Being able to see the events happening on our Sun’s surface with this level of detail is always astounding. What interests me the most is how this video effectively captures the magnetic field lines of the Sun, and the violent events that take place in those regions.
