Comet decides to tickle the sun’s nose, makes it sneeze

The above video, from the SOHO mission shows what appears to be a comet, hitting the sun head on, followed immediately by a massive plume on the other side. To me this proves only that the sun is mostly made of gas, as predicted, since the comet seems to have somewhat gone through it.

Also, we’re glad it missed the Earth. That kind of impact might have hurt the economy a little.
