NASA (the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has released stunning and remarkable images of the Sun. These images were captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, which orbits in space. NASA announced that its space telescope took a photo every 12 seconds using a wavelength of 10 invisible ultraviolet light to create a film from the recorded images. In this method, each wavelength highlights a different temperature of solar materials and is assigned a color. A team of leading NASA specialists then stitched the images together, transforming every 10 hours of footage into one minute of film. This film depicts various regions of the Sun that are typically sources of solar storms. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory studies solar activities and the impact these activities have on space.
