Description

Managed to catch a portion of this fast erupting loop prominence on April 9th on the southeast solar limb.   The time-lapse is a full 2 hours condensed down to 9 seconds.  This is actually the tail end of the loop prom eruption.  You can see the well-formed left side of the loop structure at the onset.  The right side had already lost much of its structure.  At its peak it was twice as tall.  I believe this was associated with AR2978 and a C1.1 solar flare
