Metal Print : Sunspot groups seen on the Suns surface
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Sunspot groups seen on the Suns surface
Sunspots. Several dark sunspot groups seen on the Sun. Sunspots are areas on the Suns surface which are around 2000 degrees Celsius cooler than their surroundings, causing them to appear darker. The cooling effect is produced by intense magnetic fields in the area. The larger spots seen here have a well-defined dark region (umbra) surrounded by a less-dark region, the penumbra. Sunspots are a sign of an active Sun. The Sun goes through a period of activity every 11 years or so. This is thought to be caused by the interactions between different layers of the Sun, as they rotate at different rates. This photograph was taken in June 1999, before the solar activity maximum in 2000

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing sunspot groups on the surface of our mighty Sun. These dark patches, known as sunspots, appear significantly darker due to their temperature being approximately 2000 degrees Celsius cooler than their surroundings. The cooling effect is a result of intense magnetic fields present in these areas. In this particular image, we can observe several large sunspot groups with distinct characteristics. Each spot consists of a well-defined dark region called the umbra, surrounded by a slightly less-dark region known as the penumbra. These features are indicators of an active Sun and hold significant scientific value. The Sun experiences periods of heightened activity roughly every 11 years. This phenomenon is believed to be caused by the interactions between different layers within our star, which rotate at varying rates. This photograph was taken in June 1999, just before reaching its solar activity maximum in 2000. As we delve into this stunning visual representation captured by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into the intricate workings of our celestial neighbor. It serves as a reminder that even from afar, nature's wonders continue to amaze us and fuel our curiosity about the vast cosmos beyond our reach.
