Plasma clouds over the surface of the Sun

From NASA Sun and Space...

(over at the Ex Bird place...) This week’s space weather report includes:

3 X-class flares ·

45 M-class flares ·

25 coronal mass ejections ·

1 geomagnetic storm

This video from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory shows the week’s activity. The “wiggle” at 2:30 is a calibration maneuver.

...The image blacks out sometimes because the SDO's orbit is now in its "eclipse season". More about that here.

Testing out solar photography before the 2024 total eclipse next month! Thought it would be fun to compare my photo to today's SDO satellite image

Sun Releases 2 of its Strongest Flares yet on May 11, 2024 | 24h time-lapse (AIA 0304 Å) Courtesy of NASA/SDO, AIA, EVE, & HMI science teams.

The Sun emitted two of its strongest solar flares yet from an active sunspot region called AR3664, peaking at 01:23am UTC on May 11, 2024, and 11:44am UTC on May 11, 2024. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which watches the Sun constantly, captured images of the events. Solar flares are powerful bursts of energy. Flares and solar eruptions can impact radio communications, electric power grids, navigation signals, and pose risks to spacecraft and astronauts. The flares are classified as X5.8 and X1.5-class flares, respectively. X-class denotes the most intense flares, while the number provides more information about its strength.

These emissions come from ionized iron atoms (Fe IX and Fe X) in the lower corona.

I'm gonna try using this site more, hope yall like my dumb drone face because it ain't going anywhere

The Sun

The Sun released an X1 solar flare, a powerful burst of energy, captured by our Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) on Oct. 2, 2022. X-class are the most intense flares, while the number provides more information about its strength. For instance, an X1 flare is half as strong as an X2. While solar flares can affect radio communications, power grids, and navigation signals, harmful radiation from a solar flare cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground. By studying flares and how they affect our planet and nearby space, the SDO helps us to better prepare for and mitigate these potential disruptions.

NASA’s NuSTAR Telescope Reveals Hidden Light Shows on the Sun by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center Via Flickr: Even on a sunny day, human eyes can’t see all the light our nearest star gives off. A new image displays some of this hidden light, including the high-energy X-rays emitted by the hottest material in the Sun’s atmosphere, as observed by NASA’s Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR). While the observatory typically studies objects outside our solar system – like massive black holes and collapsed stars – it has also provided astronomers with insights about our Sun. In this composite image, NuSTAR data is represented as blue and is overlaid with observations by the X-ray Telescope (XRT) on the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency’s Hinode mission, represented as green, and the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), represented as red. NuSTAR’s relatively small field of view means it can’t see the entire Sun from its position in Earth orbit, so the observatory’s view of the Sun is actually a mosaic of 25 images, taken in June 2022. The high-energy X-rays observed by NuSTAR appear at only a few locations in the Sun’s atmosphere. By contrast, Hinode’s XRT detects low-energy X-rays, and SDO’s AIA detects ultraviolet light – wavelengths that are emitted across the entire face of the Sun.

LMAO I forgot that I went to the SDO site and downloaded the data of the goofy sun smile as a movie and it looks SO OMINOUS
