Happy Valentine's Day!
Very geeky, but, if you use your imagination, this solar flare almost makes a heart shape. The image was captured on Valentine's Day last year, when the Sun emitted its first X-class solar flare in more than four years. At 900 km/second, it reached the Earth on February 16 last year.

Barb,
The moon can't wax, and the sun won't shine,
if you won't be my valentine. ![Smile](http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Happy Valentine's Day!

I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
