INCREDIBLE new images of the sun!

New, incredibly detailed images AND MOVIES of the surface of the sun!

The site’s respnse is slow - it must be very busy (not too surprising). This caused some problems. Some movies would load, but the QT plugin wouldn’t start. I finally had to copy the loaded movies from my IE temporary files folder and view them with the standalone QT.

But they were worth the trouble!

Wow! Neato.

Thanks

Nice website, Thanks!

Here’s another: Solar images at SDAC.

Wow. I now have a brand new wallpaper for my desktop.

If I stare at these images too long, will I go blind?

Wow! It looks like — a yellow ball!

danthemanYes, if you masturbate to the images you will go blind, develop dementia, and develop hairy palms. :smiley:

My first thought as well, Ogre. The very first one of the big yellow ball is really impressive. You almost wouldn’t guess it’s the sun at all.

Thanks for the link, row.
