Details:
I was incredibly lucky to catch an explosive eruption from AR4079 as it sat on the limb. I wanted to see the buildup to the event but my original animation frames were 30 seconds apart which was too long. So I chopped my original 900 frame videos into 100 frame clips and processed them as normal with AS!4 and Wavesharp. This let me slow down the motion by 9x while still having reasonable results. You can see the plasma loop rise up and twist around itself just prior to the explosion. Unfortunately, cloud cut in just then so I missed the actual snapping of the loop. Also attached is the full event at 2 different speeds.
