As NYE approaches, a good sign for Loopers?



A large solar flare was observed just on the 28th, which although directed
away from the Earth was noticeable because of it's "long-duration and high
x-ray energy output".  However, the LD-related part is this: The flare was
in a formation on its own showing itself as a "rising arcade of hot loops
known as a loop prominence system."  The individual photos of this may be
found at http://www.spacew.com/astroalert.html - and they are indeed loops!

So perhaps from a faux-cosmological aspect, it could be said that the Sun's
given its relative blessing upon loopers and looping music?  Okay, it's a
stretch, but a fun one.  Check it out.
