If you try and fuel scoop through one, you will notice your scoop rate and heat rise real quick.

Pretty cool, I have yet to see that either.

 

[Senex VII]

What a shame. By rolling you exposed it as being mere texture sprites.

 

[Privata]

I have seen a few of them , I hope to see one day a system wide (or nearly) one as they do happen in real life I belive

 

[Siddius]

nice, haven't seen that before, and glad to hear it spikes your heat to fly thru that as it'd make sense

 

[TerrorTrooper]

You also rarely get super bright white ones.
Haven't seen one since beta however.

Too bad fuel scoop itself is not graphically presented. Tried to see what happens if you go to debug cam mode - nothing

 

[Smoon]

I have seen many and I can confirm that flying through one does tend to heat up your ship real quick like.

I've seen quite a few solar flare eruptions. They vary in size, and I've caught a couple pretty big ones on video before. I never grow tired of seeing them, though. They're simply beautiful and memorizing. I just wish that parts of the flares didn't spin with you. I remember first noticing this graphical trick in many 3D N64 games. Why it's still being used today is beyond me.

You can also se them on the system map. Zoom in on a star and you can se how the Surface of a star moves and also when solar flares erupts

 

[Roqinn]

Neat! I usually don't stick around stars long enough to see that.
