Giant Solar Tornado Spotted on Sun, Hurling Plasma into Space.
TL;DR Summary
Astrophotographers Andrew McCarthy and Jason Guenzel have produced a stunning image of the Sun with a solar tornado spinning off it that’s as tall as 14 Earths. McCarthy captured over 200,000 images and worked with Guenzel over five days on the data to create the 140-megapixel picture. The pair managed to get an unprecedented level of detail into their photo which McCarthy says is his “most detailed Sun picture.” The image is a blend of science and art, combining over 90,000 images meticulously layered and processed to reveal the star in a way never seen before.
