Three Years of Sun in Three Minutes
A composite of 25 separate images spanning the period of April 16, 2012, to April 15, 2013. It reveals the zones on the Sun where active regions are most common during this part of the solar cycle. Have a look at the video… Image © NASA/SDO/AIA/S. Wiessinger
Sun’s Most Powerful Solar Flare of the Year
NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured this image of an M6.5 class flare at 3:16 am EDT on April 11, 2013. This image shows a combination of light in wavelengths of 131 and 171 Angstroms. Image © NASA/SDO
What If The Sun Disappeared?
What would happen if the Sun disappeared? In the video you will find out how much we and all planets are dependent from the Sun and more! Check out the video… Image © NASA SDO
Surface of the Sun as you’ve Never Seen It
This extraordinary 3 min video looks back on the 3rd year of operation of NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. Since its launch in 2010, SDO’s data and imagery have exceeded everyone’s hopes and expectations, providing stunningly detailed views of the sun. Watch the stunning video…
Magnetic Loops on the Sun
This image of magnetic loops (like flux ropes) on the sun, captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). It has been processed to highlight the edges of each loop to make the structure more clear. Image © NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center/SDO
Why Scientists Observe the Sun in Different Wavelengths
This collage of solar images from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) shows how observations of the sun in different wavelengths helps highlight different aspects of the sun‘s surface and atmosphere. Image © NASA/SDO/Goddard Space Flight Center

Solar Eruption- Size of 20 Earths
A giant Solar Eruption the size of 20 Earths, on Dec. 31, 2012. The length of the eruption extends about 160,000 miles out from the Sun. The Earth is superimposed on this image to give readers a sense of the scale. Image © NASA/SDO/Steele Hill
Van Gogh Sun (video)
A new technique created by Nicholeen Viall, a solar scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, depicts the 12-hour history of cooling and heating at a particular spot on the sun. The images produced are reminiscent of a van Gogh painting. Image credit: NASA
Venus Transit- First images and video
These are the first images and videos of the transit of Venus across the face of the Sun, the last one for another 105 years. From the Solar Dynamics Observatory: Planet Venus transiting the Sun in the 304 Angstrom wavelength at approx. 90,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Credit: NASA/SDO
Solar Storms
The space-weather forecast for the next few years: solar storms, with a chance of catastrophic blackouts on Earth. Are we prepared?
An X-class flare, the most powerful in NOAA’s classification system, overloads a sensor on the Solar Dynamics Observatory. With the solar cycle expected to peak in 2013, more flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) may be headed earthward. Photograph by NASA SDO, August 9, 2011 / National Geographic
