Solar activity, SDO ultraviolet image
Solar activity, Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) ultraviolet image. The SDO is an Earth-orbiting spacecraft launched in 2010 by NASA and used to observe the Sun. Here, the Sun is seen at a wavelength of 304 angstroms (extreme ultraviolet). This channel shows areas where cooler, dense plumes of plasma (such as filaments and prominences) occur above the visible surface of the Sun, and are seen in the upper chromosphere and lower transition region. The bright areas show high-density regions of plasma. Image obtained on 23 January 2012, during a period of solar activity

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a mesmerizing display of solar activity, showcasing the Sun in all its glory. Taken by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) in 2012, this ultraviolet image reveals intricate details of the Sun's surface at a wavelength of 304 angstroms. In this channel, cooler and denser plumes of plasma, known as filaments and prominences, can be seen rising above the visible surface of the Sun. These captivating features are located in the upper chromosphere and lower transition region. The bright areas indicate high-density regions of plasma that add to the dynamic nature of our nearest star. The SDO spacecraft has been orbiting Earth since its launch in 2010, dedicated to observing and studying various aspects of our Sun. This particular image was captured during a period of heightened solar activity on January 23rd, providing scientists with valuable insights into the behavior and dynamics of our closest stellar neighbor. As we gaze upon this extraordinary photograph from space, we are reminded not only of the immense power and beauty radiating from our Sun but also how far humanity has come in exploring and understanding celestial phenomena. It serves as a testament to mankind's relentless pursuit for knowledge about our vast universe.
