Wavelengths of Light



Presenting a unique, multi-wavelength image of the Sun, created by capturing specific wavelengths to highlight distinct solar features and layering them into a pie-shaped composite. Each segment of this image showcases different aspects of solar activity:

- White Light: Surface granulation and sunspots on the photosphere
- H-alpha (656.3 nm): Prominences and filaments in the chromosphere
- H-beta (486.1 nm): Enhanced chromospheric details
- Magnesium (around 517 nm): Granulation patterns and magnetic field activity
- Helium D3 (587.6 nm): Magnetic structures in active regions

This composition provides a comprehensive, scientific view of the Sun’s complex layers and dynamic activity.
