This is why our solar system kicks ass. 

The sun spewed a spectacular flare on Friday afternoon, seen here in a dramatic shot from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. The 500,000-mile-long filament of solar material erupted into space, traveling at more than 900 miles per second, and interacted with our planet’s magnetic field, causing this aurora to appear on Monday night.
