Mysterious 'finger-like' solar-flares seen falling into the sun in 1999, rather than out of it as would be expected, have finally been explained by scientists.
Typical solar flares, which are giant eruptions from the surface of the sun, blast outward, like a giant tentacle, but in January 1999 astronomers saw one burst down, back towards our host star, something that left scientists guessing for two decades.
In a new study, experts found that these unusual flares, dubbed 'downward-moving dark voids', are the result of fluids of different densities not being able to mix.
