On July 5, 2012, Venus passed in front of the Sun, an extremely rare astronomical event, with the next one not happening until 2117.
While observing Venus against the Sun in New Mexico, a photographer spotted a plane on the left, flying directly toward the Sun. With his camera already focused on the Sun, he captured this amazing shot! Read More...

A Triangular Prominence Hovers Over the Sun

Explanation: Why is there a triangle hovering over the Sun? Although the shape is unusual, the type of structure is not: it is part of an evolving solar prominence. Looping magnetic fields on the Sun channel the flow of energetic particles, sometimes holding glowing gaseous structures aloft for months.
A prominence glows brightly because it contains particularly hot, dense, or opaque solar plasma. The surprising triangular structure occurred last week. Larger than our Earth, the iconic prominence was imaged by several solar photographers and documented by NASA's Solar Dynamic Observatory to form and violently dissipate in about a day.
The featured image was captured in a color of red light emitted strongly by hydrogen. Below, solar fibrils carpet the Sun's chromosphere, while the background sky is so faint in comparison that no stars are visible. Our Sun's surface has been quite active this year.
