More fantastic SDO Images (and a "hair" on their CCD!)

Some more fantastic SDO images.

You'd have to be REALLY annoyed at the dust on the CCD though! It's not like they can pull out the q-tip and get it off, up their in space!

WOW!
You can see some plasma "forming" from the gasses before falling back down.

The best part for me is the last third where you can see the twirling streams coming back onto the surface
Awesome footage!

(they can put a man on the Moon, take pictures of the Sun surface but they cant use flats/make a mask to process out the hair speck?)
:lol:
Awesome imaging
truly gives a new dynamic perspective doesn't it?
