Alqueva´s Dark Sky Reserve | By Year: 2024 | Solar Ha
Captured on the 31th of January, 2024, from Dark Sky® Alqueva region, Portugal, a high-resolution image and time lapse sequence features the chromosphere activity, revealing the exact moment when a solar blast released plasma into space, and then returned back to the Solar disc, pushed by the strong force of gravity. It’s possible to see a lot of interesting changes on its intricate shape. We can also notice a lot of fine spicules surrounding the solar disc and dancing like hair in the wind, while the chromosphere itself is showing a slower motion. The final result is a 4K high resolution solar time lapse footage comprising around 1h30 of photos.
