The sun spat out a 100,000 miles long flame of plasma yesterday

This image is inverted to highlight the prominences at the top, one of which is a huge plasma stream being ejected into space.

wouldn't that be more like 30-40 K miles? I didn't measure it, I'm just guessing based on other images I've seen before.

Well, that puts distance in perspective. Thanks for both the photo and the info.
