The dance of sunspots.
Multiple spots cross the solar chromosphere. These colder regions give a particular configuration to the surface of the Sun, such that if we have the perseverance of looking at the Sun daily with a telescope (always with the appropriate filters!!), we will see how these active regions paint a different view of our star. Every 11 years, the Sun describes a cycle of activity in which maximum sunspots are recorded and minimums in which no spots are observed. Currently, we are going through a period of intense activity.
If you have the chance, don't miss the opportunity to see the Sun with a telescope; It's a sight you won't forget.
This photograph is the result of stacking 15 photographs in raw format, taken with a Nikon D5600 camera at primary focus on a Maksutov-Cassegrain "Explore Scientific" 127, f/15 telescope. A Meade 575 white light filter was used. The final image was processed with AstroSurface, Siril and Gimp.
