Radient Gradeince



What we have here is an illustrious blending of science and art.  Our sun is pretty much awesome, and as if it weren't cool enough, some of the bright folks at NASA figured out that adding a gradient filter to the already spectacular footage we have of the sun enhances the subtler details otherwise lost in the sea of yellow/orange hues.  Brilliance exceeded only by beauty.




And in the case you tend to appreciate the finer things in the universe like such as heliophysics; this final vid just gives further revelation of the impressive orb that rules the day.
This huge solar flare from last september = awesome.
