NASA video shows the sun just blasted out 4 eruptions at the same time. The rare event may have sent plasma hurtling toward Earth.

• Four solar flares appeared to erupt on the sun at the same time on Monday night.
• NASA video shows the simultaneous eruptions sent rapid bursts of bright light from the sun's surface.
• There is no threat to Earth, but solar flares have the potential to cause geomagnetic storms.

The sun is furiously demanding our attention again, flexing near the peak of its power with four eruptions at the same time.
