2013-11-02T04:00:03 --> 2013-11-02T05:30:03
The C8 flare from AR 11885 is quite eruptive, but the ejection is largely deflected south. Interestingly about 18 minutes before the flare onset, we see an indication of big eruption over the west limb, which must be from a region behind the west limb, most likely what used to be AR 11875, now about W130 or so. It is not clear whether the eruption from AR 11885 contributed to the spectacular halo CME (see LASCO C2 difference image of 05:24-05:12, which indicates a shock at various places).

Filament eruption associated with AR11888. The short filament erupts, and in the process affects a relatively larger volume of coronal plasma. Interestingly, after the eruption, the filament appears to reform in the same location, and the overlying coronal loop structures appear to be mostly unchanged.

An X-class flare is followed by a massive coronal wave (211A) and a formation of a beautiful prominence (304A and 171A).

A small blob of 304A material is rapidly expelled from the highly active AR on the W limb. This happens close (in the plane of sky) to the unusually long 171A loop, bent in such a way that at the apex it is nearly horizontal, andwhich stretches almost over 90 degrees around the disk - from where it seems to start. As the 304A blob takes off, some wiggles propagating along the large loop are observed. They are most easily visible at the loop top, which also wiggles as the perturbation comes through.

IT almost looks like a sequence of explosions in the AR on the W limb is feeding up the filament on the SW limb. Every eruption in a sequence leads to some activity along that filament, progressively larger and larger, resulting in a beautiful well-developed prominence by the end of the day.

Running difference movies of the earlier annotated event. It literally looks like half of the Sun just exploded

The Sun has produced an enormous amount of ridiculously amazing explosive events today. This one is associated with a large filament eruption off the E disk and an associated _large_ coronal wave - it clearly stands out even without making the running difference movies.

The Sun isn't done producing beautiful events for today. This is a large prominence eruption. Most of the 304A stuff seems to fall back down to the surface, while 211A reveals an erupted cavity. Note, in particular, the horizontally extended brightening along what I presume is the footpoint of the erupted structure. Also note a post-eruption-like behavior of a small AR in the top left corner of the ROI.

A loop fan on the SE limb in 171A spreads apart quite substantially - see the size of the ROI. A wide, faint and visually horizontal "halo" is seen close to the 171A field of view limit. It might be a line of loop tops (or one horizontally stretched loop top?). I wonder if this is a CCD artefact. I've never seen it before at such heights.
