As you go through your day today, remember something important: Life on this little mote depends entirely on the mercy of a cosmic nuclear power with an itchy trigger finger. wired.trib.al/VZHQUEK 1/14
The sun's magnetic field originates as a series of orderly north-to-south lines. Very quickly, those lines stretch and tangle, forming magnetic knots that can puncture the surface and trap matter beneath them. 2/14
The resulting patches are known as sunspots. Sometimes, the knots untangle spontaneously, violently. The sunspot turns into the muzzle of a gun: Photons flare in every direction, and a slug of magnetized plasma fires like a bullet. 3/14
