A little more info as to what NASA took the pic of would be nice. I am
guessing the sun, but that might be too obvious.

Explanation: Imagine a pipe as wide as a state and as long as half the Earth.
Now imagine that this pipe is filled with hot gas moving 50,000 kilometers per
hour. Further imagine that this pipe is not made of metal but a transparent
magnetic field. You are envisioning just one of thousands of young spicules on
the active Sun. Pictured above is perhaps the highest resolution image yet of
these enigmatic solar flux tubes. Spicules dot the above frame of solar active
region 10380 that crossed the Sun in 2004 June, but are particularly evident as
a carpet of dark tubes on the right. Time-sequenced images have recently shown
that spicules last about five minutes, starting out as tall tubes of rapidly
rising gas but eventually fading as the gas peaks and falls back down to the
Sun. These images also indicate that the ultimate cause of spicules is
sound-like waves that flow over the Sun's surface but leak into the Sun's
atmosphere.
