[kellygrrrrrl]

I like to see neat stuff. So If you see a neat picture! Post it!

I vow to post a cool picture daily! Scouts Honor!

This picture is so fascinating to me! Here is the text that came with it:

Explanation: During a total solar eclipse, the Sun's extensive outer atmosphere or corona is an awesome and inspirational sight. The subtle shades and shimmering features of the corona that engage the eye span a brightness range of over 10,000 to 1, making them notoriously difficult to capture in a single picture. But this composite of 33 digital images ranging in exposure time from 1/8000 to 1/5 second comes very close to revealing the crown of the Sun in all its glory. The telescopic views were recorded from Side, Turkey during the March 29 solar eclipse, a geocentric celestial event that was widely seen under nearly ideal conditions. The composite also captures a pinkish prominence extending just beyond the upper edge of the eclipsed sun.

Presented here are two photographs of the Sun, taken approximately six months apart from Madison, Wisconsin, by science teacher Art Camosy and myself. The first image was captured when the Earth was close to aphelion -- the point when Earth is farthest away from the Sun during its year-long orbit (in early July). The second was taken within a few days of perihelion -- when Earth is closest to the Sun (in early January). Our goal was to use these images to supplement a unit on the seasons taught to high school freshman science students. These images should help dispel the common misconception that summer occurs when the Earth is closest to the Sun. Rather, the seasons result from the Earth's constant tilt of 23 1/2 degrees. The north pole faces more Sun-ward during the portion of the Earth's orbit when it's furthest from the Sun but faces away from the Sun when it's closest to it. The Earth-Sun distance is approximately 147.5 million km at perihelion and 152.6 million km at aphelion.

Are you a science teacher? Just wondering because I also am, and this sounds like a wonderful supplement.
