The coronal mass ejection starts at 2:36 UTC and ends at 3:56 UTC on August 1 in this animation on STEREO Ahead images. The animation shows the cloud of particles moving away toward Earth at more than 1,000 kilometres per second (3.6 million kilometres per hour), moving more quickly than any other coronal mass ejection in years.
