DePontieu has been culling images of two particular types of events on the sun that have long been interesting to scientists. One is known as a prominence, which are cool regions within the interface region that appear as giant loops of solar material rising up above the solar surface. When ...
An image of the Sun “smiling” was captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory on October 26, 2022. Credit: NASA/SDO Say cheese! On October 26,NASA’sSolar Dynamics Observatory(SDO) caught the Sun “smiling.” Seen in ultraviolet light, these dark patches on the Sun are known as cor...
Here is a picture taken by the SDO. It is a full disk multi-wavelength extreme ultraviolet image in which each colours [seen at different layers] represent different gas temperatures. The blue and green colours seen just outside the sun are of high temperatures in the range of 1 million Ke...
Case Study. Monitoring the surface of the sun with NASA's solar dynamics observatory, Z by HP, and NVIDIA.
article (NASA) OUTER SPACE - NASA is sharing a photo of the Sun looking like a jack-o-lantern. The photo was taken in 2014 and shows "active regions" on the Sun creating the spooky face. The image was taken in ultraviolet light by the Solar Dynamics Observatory satellite....
NASA celebrates one year of the James Webb Space Telescope performing science operations in deep space by sharing a phenomenal image of a star being born. The image is of the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex, which is the closest star-forming region to Earth. In one regard, it seems like just ...
A recent image of the active sun captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. Credit: NASA / SDO Our medium-sized star is experiencing intense activity. Fortunately, this solar activity is normal, but nevertheless spectacular. The NASA Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) — which has been in ...
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory takes photos that are so high-resolution that not even the most advanced Ultra-HD TVs have the definition to display them in full resolution.(Image credit: NASA / SDO) A NASA spacecraft that constantly stares at the sun for signs of solar storms snaps imag...
