Here’s the time-lapse I promised you from yesterday’s solar activity. Complete with Earth to scale and a bonus of the sun’s rotation. This is easily one of my cleanest time-lapses I’ve managed over such a long period. Enjoy!

Wow look what you could do with a very very higher budget! Your work is amazing

Dude, you're about to blow up. I hope you're prepared.

I was completely unaware you could get images like this from Earth (Especially with atmosphere distortion). I would have thought this would be a space-based telescope that captured this. I am absolutely blown away!

You can it’s just a lot of work! Each frame of this video is made from 500 individual 16-bit photos, stacked to average out the perturbations and then sharpened

Makes me think how the universe is so hostile really. We’re pretty lucky to have ended up on a nice warm protected oxygen bubble.

This is the first I've seen "consumer-grade" sun recording, or any sun recording outside of like an observatory or satellite How do you stop the brightness from just exploding your sensor lol, what filters do you use?

Andrew McCarthyvor 1 Jahr

Lots of filters! The daystar quark chromosphere and baader ERF do the heavy lifting of protecting the sensor.

Have you tried focusing this on mars or Venus? If you can get this kind of clarity from the sun “much further away” than those two planetary bodies then it should be easy right? Do you have any of those?

Yeah I’ve shot them in detail, but the planets are far smaller so I’m not able to make as high resolution of an image. Just look at the earth compared to these features, now imagine how much more magnification I’d need to see details of the continents.

Here's Elon Musk explaining why we'll have to move AI to deep space. “I see a path to Starship cost-per-ton-to-orbit being lower than air flight. That opens up a very wide range of possibilities. The most obvious one I think is actually solar-powered AI satellites. So, to move the AI to orbit and essentially deep space over time, because you can actually access over a billion times more energy from the sun in deep space than you can on Earth. To scale to Kardashev, to make any progress on a Kardashev 2 scale, which is using some non-trivial amount of energy from the sun, you kind of have to do space solar power. You could only beam a tiny amount of that back to Earth or you would melt Earth. Earth actually receives a very, very tiny amount of the sun's energy. I mean, Earth is a tiny dust mote. Earth, to scale with the sun, we look like a little crumb. So, to scale civilization, to be at all relevant on a Kardashev 2 scale, like to even use a millionth of a percent of the Sun's energy, you really have to have your solar power in deep space.” Tesla Shareholder Meeting, November 6, 2025

🌞 See the Sun from a whole new angle. For the first time, our Solar Orbiter mission has captured close-up images of the Sun’s mysterious poles, regions long hidden from our view. In 2025, Solar Orbiter gave us a first-ever look at the Sun’s south pole. Remarkably, it found both north and south magnetic fields tangled together. This is a sign that the Sun is at the peak of its 11-year activity cycle, when its magnetic poles are ready to flip...

$Astrophotographer Mark Johnston Azastroguy captured a mesmerizing scene on October 20, 2025, from Willow Springs Lake in Arizona, showing a fiery filament of hydrogen plasma dancing above the Sun’s limb. Suspended by the Sun’s magnetic field, this structure twists and shimmers in a 6.5-second time-lapse video that condenses 75 minutes of real solar activity. Using a TEC 160FL refractor equipped with specialized solar filters, including a 0.3 Å hydrogen-alpha etalon, Johnston revealed an extraordinary level of detail in the solar prominence, a glowing loop of magnetized gas rising from the photosphere into the corona. The footage captures the intricate motion of plasma arcing hundreds of thousands of kilometers across the Sun’s surface, sometimes lasting for days or even weeks. Beyond its beauty, the video serves as a reminder of the Sun’s dynamic magnetism and the importance of using certified solar filters, since observing the Sun without protection can cause permanent eye damage.$

Where are we at in the current solar cycle? that 11-year on average period of time when the Sun goes from a minimum of activity to a maximum and back to minimum. Meet Dr. Mark Miesch in this SWPC video to explain more.

On Nov 13th, there was a solar particle event that resulted in beautiful blankets of aurora. You may have seen it. We had the most amazing view and our crew collectively took thousands of photos and dozens of time lapses. Here is one of those time lapses. Nov 13th. Nikon Z9 | 14mm.

It’s #SunDay! Here’s your space weather report for the week of Jan. 30 – Feb 5: - 72 M-class flares (!) - 6 X-class flares - 33 coronal mass ejections - 0 geomagnetic storms This video from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) shows the week’s activity. SDO ended its Earth eclipse period this week just in time for an uninterrupted view of a barrage of solar flares! This week, one active region in particular — AR4366, which rotates onto the Earth-facing disk of the Sun at the beginning of this video — unleashed a whopping six X-class flares this week, and all but three of this week’s 72 M-class flares. This one is worth a watch!🤩
