“Happy Halloween!” – The Sun 🎃⁣ ⁣ This image blends together two sets of wavelengths at 171 and 193 angstroms, typically colorized in gold and yellow, to create a particularly Halloween-like appearance. The active regions on the sun appear brighter because those are areas that emit more light and energy — markers of an intense and complex set of magnetic fields hovering in the sun’s atmosphere, the corona.⁣ ⁣ Image Credit: NASA/Glenn Space Flight Center/Solar Dynamics Observatory⁣ ⁣ #nasa #space #sun #exploration
