Description
Solar prominences are cool clouds of plasma suspended above the Sun’s surface by magnetic fields, often forming loop-like structures that stretch hundreds of thousands of kilometers into the corona. Magnetic forces support the prominence material against gravity.
This time-lapse reveals mesmerizing solar activity through a special filter, the Daystar Quark Chromosphere, bringing you views of solar flares and chromospheric features in exquisite clarity.
Equipment Used:
Telescope: SkyWatcher EvoStar 120mm F8
Solar Filter: DayStar Quark Chromosphere
Camera: ZWO ASI 432MM
Other: Skywatcher Heq5 Pro Mount, ZWO Asi 120mm, ZWO Mini Guide Scope, ZWO AEF
The sound is made out of audio clips from NASA's Parker Probe that recorded parts of the solar wind.
