Quote:Behold the spectacular side view of the Sun! Watch as magnetic field lines twist and turn while Coronal Rain falls down into the solar surface. Underneath all these dancing prominences is a the very active solar surface throwing up all kinds of plasma.

This time-lapse reveals mesmerizing solar activity through a special filter, the Daystar Quark Chromosphere, bringing you views of solar flares and chromospheric features in exquisite clarity.

The audio is created with sound clips from NASA’s Parker Solar Probe. It flew through solar wind and the sun’s corona! Its instruments captured electromagnetic waves and particle collisions. These sounds are the results of that data.

The speed of this footage is around 540x compared to real time.
