Edited SDO PR image of small prominences on the sun.
Image source: photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA22661
Original caption: NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) observes two relatively small prominences above the Sun's surface twisted and streamed charged particles over a 20-hour period (July 30-31, 2018), shown here in a wavelength of extreme ultraviolet light. Prominences are large, bright features anchored to the Sun's photosphere but extending outward into its hot outer atmosphere, called the corona. Scientists are still researching how and why prominences are formed.

Some combination of SDO images (each in turn a specific wavelength to see various features of the sun) combined into HSL or CMYK images. And then processed again.
This video shows an eruption that almost reached the level of an X-class at around 18h UT.
In this video, the northern hemisphere is up and the southern hemisphere down.
This video is in false colors. Combination with AIA304, AIA171 and AIA 131.
Observed by SDO on July 11, 2023 at a wavelength of 304 A, 171 A and 131 A.
The wavelength is ultraviolet for the sun.

Buses Excetera S20 (S20 ETC, ex-RL51 CXB) stands at Guildford bus station between duties on the commercial Sunday service on the 24. Not sure why it's got the Glebelands School blinds up.
Along with the 516, the Sunday service is being withdrawn in January. "This due to to the lack of passenger support over the last three months" according to Excetera's website. The last day for both routes will be Sunday 19th January 2014.
Friary bus station, Guildford, Surrey.
Detail from SDO images taken July 9, 2010. Cropped and adjusted to bring out detail, this is a composite of AIA 171 and 304 images, which combined show coronal magnetic line activity as well as photospheric surface detail.

I'm once again grateful to Keith Lee for this splendid image and accompanying notes. It shows HUP 950C, a Leyland Leopard PSU3/3R with a 49-seat Weymann dual-purpose body to the BET group standard design.
One of eight similar vehicles delivered to Northern General subsidiary Sunderland District Omnibus Company in 1965 (fleet numbers 345-52), it was a regular performers on services 4, 5 and 15 from Sunderland to Consett; 39 from Newcastle to Murton via Easington Lane (and possibly to Thornley); 49/95 from Easington Lane/Fence Houses to Sunderland or Newcastle; 73 from Sunderland to Fatfield; 111 from Sunderland to Silksworth Vicarage Estate or Houghton-le-Spring Hall Lane Estate; and X5 from Newcastle to Hartlepool.
Having never seen SDO's unusual turquoise and ivory coach livery, I've done my best to reproduce it with guidance from Keith and other subject matter experts. It would be interesting to see this particular livery on model manufacturer EFE's recently introduced BET casting (18-Nov-09).

On 8 October 2014, the Sun's active regions combined to resemble the face of a pumpkin for Halloween. The active regions appear brighter because they are areas that emit more light and energy, markers of an intense and complex set of magnetic fields hovering in the Sun's atmosphere, the corona. This image is in the 304 angstrom wavelength. The image has been magnified using our artificial intelligence model. It can be downloaded at a resolution of 625 million pixels (25000x25000 pixels).

Edited NuSTAR PR image of the sun (most of the image is from SDO) overlayed with x-rays seen by NuSTAR.
Original caption: X-rays stream off the sun in this image showing observations from by NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, overlaid on a picture taken by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). This is the first picture of the sun taken by NuSTAR. The field of view covers the west limb of the sun.
The NuSTAR data, seen in green and blue, reveal solar high-energy emission (green shows energies between 2 and 3 kiloelectron volts, and blue shows energies between 3 and 5 kiloelectron volts). The high-energy X-rays come from gas heated to above 3 million degrees.
The red channel represents ultraviolet light captured by SDO at wavelengths of 171 angstroms, and shows the presence of lower-temperature material in the solar atmosphere at 1 million degrees.
This image shows that some of the hotter emission tracked by NuSTAR is coming from different locations in the active regions and the coronal loops than the cooler emission shown in the SDO image.
NuSTAR is a Small Explorer mission led by the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena and managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, also in Pasadena, for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. The spacecraft was built by Orbital Sciences Corporation, Dulles, Virginia. Its instrument was built by a consortium including Caltech; JPL; the University of California, Berkeley; Columbia University, New York; NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland; the Danish Technical University in Denmark; Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, California; ATK Aerospace Systems, Goleta, California, and with support from the Italian Space Agency (ASI) Science Data Center.
NuSTAR's mission operations center is at UC Berkeley, with the ASI providing its equatorial ground station located at Malindi, Kenya. The mission's outreach program is based at Sonoma State University, Rohnert Park, California. NASA's Explorer Program is managed by Goddard. JPL is managed by Caltech for NASA.

On June 5-6 2012, SDO collected images of the rarest predictable solar event--the transit of Venus across the face of the sun. This event happens in pairs eight years apart which are separated from each other by 105 or 121 years. The last transit was in 2004 and the next will not happen until 2117

On January 27, 2012, the Sun spat out a pulsing X2 class solar flare, over twice as powerful as the one earlier in he week. This one wasn't aimied at us, so there's no danger from it.

Here you can see SDO in operation.
This train is formed of 10 coaches but the platform is only able to take 8 coach trains. SDO is programmed to allow the driver to release the correct number of doors that are actually on the station platform. The system works with the on-train’s GPS system and triggers the appropriate on board announcement to warn passengers they must be in coaches 1 to 8 to alight from the train. Station lengths vary across the network so a number of varied announcements can be heard whilst onboard.

This image shows an approximative comparison between the Earth and the Sun. The Sun is about 109 times the size of the Earth.
This rough comparison shows the size of an eruption on June 12, 2023.
The solar eruption took place in the north hemisphere of the Sun.
In this image, the northern hemisphere is up and the southern hemisphere down.
This image is in false colors. Combination with AIA335, AIA304 and AIA171
Observed by SDO on June 12, 2023 at a wavelength of 304 A, 335 A and 171 A.
The wavelength is ultraviolet for the sun. Earth is in visible light.

Madhulika Guhathakurta, SDO Program Scientist at NASA Headquarters in Washington, speaks during a briefing to discuss recent images from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO, Wednesday, April 21, 2010, at the Newseum in Washington. Launched on Feb. 11, 2010, SDO is the most advanced spacecraft ever designed to study the sun. During its five-year mission, it will examine the sun's magnetic field and also provide a better understanding of the role the sun plays in Earth's atmospheric chemistry and climate.
