Edited time lapse sequences of the sun’s atmosphere observed by the
Solar Dynamics Observatory spacecraft between 2011 and 2015.
This montage features excerpts of 4K full-disk pictures in extreme ultraviolet channels, mainly using wavelengths of 30.4 nm (50,000 Kelvin) partially in combination with 17.1 nm (6.3×105 Kelvin). The footage was captured by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) maintained by the Joint Science Operations Center – Lockheed Martin Solar and Astrophysics Laboratory in collaboration with Stanford University.
