This movie shows the sunspot structure and dynamics from the #photosphere to the #chromosphere. While the area seems to be nearly a rest in the photosphere, the chromospheric activity is very intense above the spot βοΈππ» tinyurl.com/Chromosphere-est
So I sneaked into the OU building I needed for filming when someone came out but Iβm now trapped inside without a pass card.

Still here. π
And still more than 15 billion miles (24 billion km) away from Earth. It takes my team about 22.5 hours to send me a command and another 22.5 hours for my response to get back to them. That will continue to increase the further I travel into interstellar space. -V1

129 light-years away, we can see four planets dancing around the star HR 8799 in the constellation Pegasus. This is known as direct imaging β taking pictures of faraway planets. They can only be revealed by blocking the star's bright light. go.nasa.gov/3ReNQmF
ALT Four bright lights are shown in an animation. The dots are exoplanets and they can be seen to the right and upper left of the masked star at the center of the image. A bit of bright starlight peeks out from behind the mask. A date counter goes from 2010 to 2014. Credit Jason Wang and Christian Marois
Born #OnThisDay in 1863 was American astronomer Annie Jump Cannon. Cannon, who lost most of her hearing early in her life, was one of the Harvard Computers, and her work was vital to the modern classification of stars. She classified around 350,000 stars during her career.

Ben Rider-Stokes, has investigated a unique, meteorite classified as Northwest Africa (NWA) 8535.
This sample is part of a group of meteorites from an asteroid/planet that no longer exists in the modern-day Solar System known as angrites.

This stunning new Webb image is a gift from a past star. In near-infrared light, supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A) resembles a shiny ornament. Embedded within gas from the star are the materials for new stars & planets: go.nasa.gov/3Rkqoo4
ALT Cassiopeia A, a circular cloud of gas and dust with complex structure. The inner shell is made of bright pink and orange filaments studded with clumps and knots. Around the exterior of the inner shell, particularly at the upper right, there are curtains of wispy gas that look like campfire smoke. The white smoke-like material also appears to fill the cavity of the inner shell, featuring structures shaped like large bubbles. Around and within the nebula, there are various stars seen as points of blue and white light. Outside the nebula, there are also clumps of yellow dust, with a particularly large clump at the bottom right corner that appears to have very detailed striations.

ALT A poster topped with the text "Layers of Climate Change: Issues and Solutions from Sky to Sea." The illustration depicts a vertical column of the Earth and its atmosphere, including clouds, forests, cities and the ocean. Each area includes a short description of how it contributes to climate change (and can contribute to preventing it) and a QR code that can be scanned for more information.
