Solar prominences can tower a million or more miles above the Sun's surface before falling back to the Sun. Big solar flares can launch Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) to the Earth and beyond, reaching Mars, Jupiter or beyond.

As I write this, on August 3, 2010, a CME launched by the Sun three days ago is striking the Earth's ionosphere, causing a "solar storm" with auroras as far south as Germany in Europe, and possibly to the northern states in the USA. Any observers in Canada should certainly be on the lookout for magnificent auroras!
