DKIST • NSF’s Solar Telescope Produces First Images Jan.29.2020 29.1.24 • On Jan.29 2020, The Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope produced the highest resolution observations of the Sun’s surface ever taken. In this movie, taken at a wavelength of 705nm over a period of 10 minutes, we saw features as small as 30km (18 miles) in size. The movie shows the turbulent, “boiling” gas that covers the entire sun. The cell-like structures – each about the size of Texas – are the signature of violent motions

LUNT SOLAR TELESCOPES - First Look Join us as we explore breathtaking solar prominences captured using the LUNT LS50THa H-alpha solar telescope. This footage offers an intimate look at the Sun's dynamic features, including massive plasma loops and intricate surface details. The video showcases the capabilities of the ZWO 1224MC camera in solar imaging. Originally recorded in color, we've desaturated the footage to highlight fine details. Let us know in the comments if you prefer the black-and-wh

X4.2 Solar Flare Today! Giant Sunspot on The Sun & Chances of wider spread auroras! ~AR4366 has released some X Class Solar Flares and is about 6.5 times the size of Earth! There is an enhanced chance of wider spread auroras this week. Thank You IG:misszoenova for the H-Alpha images during the X4.2 Event today! #solarflare #sun #astronomy #telescope #spaceweather | SunshineNate

NASA has announced that the Sun has released a powerful solar flare, classified as an X2.3 event. This type of flare falls into the highest category of solar flares—known as ‘X-class’—which represent the most intense bursts of radiation and light from the Sun. According to NASA, solar flares are the most powerful explosions in our solar system, with the largest capable of releasing as much energy as a billion hydrogen bombs. via: @nasa #technology #space #scary #sun #telescope | Technology IG
