Its a Movie!!!


























The sun is not exactly a non-moving object. So a photo rarely does it justice. To fix this, we have a movie of the surface of the sun captured by a japaneese satellite. The active region shown here is based around a sunspot. The visible region is obviously the photosphere which shows a solar region of 8,000 kilometers.
