I think the Rotation of the earth provides a basis for our system of local time. The earth rotates on an imaginary axis at a rate of 15 degrees per hour. Meridians of longitude are the basis for time Zones. As Earth rotates different parts of Earth receive sunlight or darkness, giving us day and night. Having time Zones means that no matter where you live on the planets, your noon is the middle of the day when the sun is highest, while midnight is the middle of the night.

Prominence is a large, bright feature extending outward from the Sun's surface. Prominences are anchored to the Sun's surface in the photosphere, and extend outwards into the Sun's hot outer atmosphere, called the corona.
Sunspots are darker, cooler areas on the surface of the sun in a region called the protosphere. Solar flares are large eruptions of electromagnetic radiation from the sun lasting from minutes to hours.
