Sun timelapse by NASA

NASA released one of our sun created from 425 million images taken over 10 years.

NASA's new Timelapse video is titled "A Decade of Sun" and is a combined daily taken from 2010 to 2020. Using 425 million images taken from Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO = Solar Dynamics Observatory), which is a spacecraft orbiting the Sun since 2010, NASA has created a timelapse of the sun in which every second represents a day.

The final creation lasts for a full hour, showing every day of our sun's existence, between June 2, 2010 and until June 2, 2020. In the video you can see the rise and fall of the activity of the sun's surface, which occurs as part of the Sun's 11-year solar cycle, as well as due to notable events such as transits of planets and explosions.

Interestingly, there are some dark frames in the video. This, as NASA explains, is the result of the Earth or the Moon passing in front of the Solar Dynamics Observatory, that is, coming between the orbiting spacecraft and the Sun. There is also an "extended" outage in 2016 caused by a technical issue that took a week to be corrected by NASA.

Take a look at the above timelapse video to see a decade of the sun, which is almost as long as an 11-year cycle of the sun. If you want to know more about, visit the NASA website.
