Summary[edit]

Description
English: Curving prominence cavity and nearby coronal hole both appear as dark shadows in a blue-coded picture made in ultraviolet light from the hot corona. The sprawling coronal hole at lower right represents a nearly empty void in the corona, where open magnetic field lines allow the gaseous coronal material to escape the Sun. The curved cavity at left was excavated by refrigeration by a quiescent prominence that still lies hidden within it.
