Summary[edit]

Description
English: Close-up view of dark 'tentacles' or 'tadpoles' (supra-arcade downflows) moving towards the solar surface in this solar flare of April 21, 2002 seen by TRACE. One theory proposed in this press release is that they are due to voids created by magnetic reconnection in the flare.
