Solar...in honour of Stephen Hawking

The brightest star in the firmament of science whose insights shaped modern cosmology. He was an extraordinary, brilliant and humorous man whose work and legacy will live on for many years.

 

Incredibly saddened to learn today of his passing.

 

A particularly hot day and dusty atmosphere back in February produced Rayleigh scatter and made for a spectacular visual at dusk when the sun appeared as a massive red disc in the western sky.
