Very Big Sunspot Unleashes Solar Flare! #astronomy #solarsystem #space

Witness the incredible details of our sun, captured from my backyard! Sunspots are where the Sun's magnetic field becomes twisted, stressed and unstable. When magnetic field lines in and around sunspots reconnect, they unleash violent solar flares like this! 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 Acquisition: 500 frames every 12 seconds captured with Firecapture | Tracked with LuSol Processing: Stacked in Autostakkert4 | ImPPG | Colorized with PixInsight SolarToolBox | footage stabilized and edited in After Effects The speed of this footage is around 540x compared to real time. The sound is made out of audio clips from NASA's Parker Probe that recorded parts of the solar wind. #sunobservation #sun #space #solarflare #telescope #astrophotography #solarsystem #spaceweather #spacefacts #sol #science #universe #spacelovers #solar
