The Sun is Effing Cool!

Above is a time lapse camera of the sun over the course of 2 days. What you’re seeing is an active sunspot that’s turning towards Earth now. Majestic it is, but these sunspots are also responsible for the Aurora Borealis, or more commonly called The Northern Lights, and can also, if they get too active, cause detrimental effects to our power grid and communication abilities.

Damn it’s beautiful though.
