[fb_vid id=”1451224908258061″]September 2017 saw a spate of solar activity, with the Sun emitting 31 sizable solar flares and releasing several powerful coronal mass ejections, all between Sept. 6-10. As always, NASA and its partners had many instruments observing the Sun from both Earth and space, enabling scientists to study these events from multiple perspectives.

This video shows solar jets associated with a strong solar flare on Sept. 10, as seen by NASA’s Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) satellite. Learn more and check out more satellite views here: https://go.nasa.gov/2gQwAaf
