Stunning time-lapse video captured using 'artificial eclipse' shows 3 massive eruptions on the sun

The European Space Agency's Proba-3 mission captured rare footage of three massive solar eruptions using an "artificial eclipse" created by two aligned spacecraft that block the sun's bright center. The time-lapse reveals prominence eruptions—towering plasma loops that snap and fling material into space—which could help scientists solve the mystery of why the sun's corona is 200 times hotter than its surface.
