As many have pointed out, the LASCO images on the SOHO website are saturated. So this is the result of my own algo for processing them. And I will echo my sentiments from yesterday: This. Comet. Is. RIDICULOUS! 🤩😍 ☄️🔭☀️

Late last year I started a series of posts on science with DKIST Cryo-NIRSP. In this post I discuss my initial experiences of working with the data and show some of its features. This should nicely lead into the new science posts I am planning in the next few weeks. 1/n ☀️🧪

This is the first in a series of posts in which I explore the new data from the Cryo-NIRSP instrument at DKIST, providing unprecedented views of the Sun's corona! I wanted to start with a brief explanation of how we investigate the Sun using different instruments. ☀️🧪

Hello all on @bsky.app. This is my first post since switching from X. Apart from saying hello I also wanted to share a journey... For the last 9 months or so I have been working with the new data coming from the Danial K. Inouye Solar Telescope and we've found some pretty interesting results. ☀️
