An astrophotographer has captured a jaw-dropping view of a 200,000 km high wall of Sun plasma.
Argentinan Eduardo Schaberger Poupeau, 50, snapped the amazing spectacle on 18 February.
Eduardo, of Rafaela in Santa Fe, said: "In the image, we can observe an enormous and rare prominence that soared to over 200,000 km above the south pole of the sun. This is a rare event, as most prominences occur near the solar equator.
