Flaring on the Sun
Flaring on the Sun

I used Helioviewer to create this short movie from data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory.

This is quite the striking display of our star's magnetic turbulence between sunspots from 9 March - 11 March, 2022.

SDO carries some of the most advanced camera spectroheliographs that measure different wavelengths of UV light.

This video is from the AIA171 data source.
