Spaceweather.com: “Late near midnight on June 21st, something behind the sun's eastern limb exploded and hurled a coronal mass ejection into space. The expanding cloud is not directed at Earth. The explosion could herald the emergence of a far side active region. Readers with solar telescopes should be alert for further activity.” Click to CME movie.
