This is a still shot from a stunning 30-minute video that NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory made of the sun, made all the more glorious by a sound track by Lars Leonard from his Deep Venture album.

From the beginning of the video: "Every twelve seconds, NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory images the sun in ten wavelengths of invisible ultraviolet light. Each wavelength is assigned a unique color and every image is eight times the resolution of HD video. A team of media specialists works about ten hours to create one minute of this footage." [Note: The video is 30 minutes long.]
