Partial disc view of the Sun's atmosphere. A sunspot cluster is visible on the upper left quadrant of the disk.

The Sun - April 26, 2013

Partial disk view of the Sun's chromosphere highlighting many prominences of gas floating beyond the atmosphere at the edge of the disk. A large sunspot cluster of dark spots and lighter phages is also visible near many of the prominences at the top of the disk.

The Sun - April 25, 2013

A partial disk view of the Sun's atmosphere is placed next to a small image of the Sun's surface. Both highlight a sunspot group visible as darker colored spots. A phage is visible on the atmospheric disk as lighter clouds near the sunspot group.

Two Views of a Sunspot Group - April 24, 2013

Partial disk view of the Sun's chromosphere highlighting a large sunspot, identifiable by the dark and lighter spots visible near the edge of the disk.

A Giant Sunspot - April 24, 2013

Disk view of the Sun's atmosphere. This image features sunspot clusters (dark spots) surrounded by phages (lighter colored clouds). Filaments (gases floating above the surface) are visible as dark lines on the visible disk, as well as prominences (gases floating from the surface) off the edges of the disk.

The Sun - April 20, 2013

Disk view of the Sun's atmosphere with multiple sunspot clusters and phages (dark spots within lighter colors) and prominences, or gases floating from the surface of the Sun at the edges of the disk, visible on the bottom half of the disk.

The Sun - April 17, 2013

Two disk views of the Sun. The left disk shows the surface of the Sun, with a few sunspots visible on the right side of the disk. The right image shows the chromosphere of the Sun, with some prominences of gas floating from the surface of the Sun and phages resulting from solar flares as lighter colors. Both the prominences and phages can be seen across the right disk.

The Sun - April 10, 2013

A set of five disk images of the Sun with two being full images and three being partial images. The images are tracking a sunspot group on the Sun.

Sunspots Appear and Move Away - April 2013

Two disk views of the Sun. The left disk shows the surface of the Sun, with a few sunspots visible on the right side of the disk. The right image shows the chromosphere of the Sun, with some prominences of gas floating from the surface of the Sun and a couple of phages on the right side of the disk.

The Sun - March 20, 2013

Darker-colored streak-like lines appear on the slope of a crater on Mars.

Recurring Slope Lineae on Garni Crater

Disk view of the Sun's atmosphere with one prominence of floating gas on the bottom left edge of the Sun and a filament of floating gas visible in the middle left side of the disk. A few phages of lighter colors are also visible across the image.

The Sun - March 9, 2013

Disk view of the Sun's chromosphere with a few prominences of gases floating above the chromosphere visible on the right side of the disk.

The Sun - February 24, 2013

The surface of Mars with a hole bored into it.

First Sample Drilling on Mars

Disk view of the Sun's chromosphere. A few prominences of floating gases are visible on the edges and two sunspot clusters are divided by a filament, or a darker-appearing line of floating gases within the disk.

The Sun - February 6, 2013

Disk view of the Sun's chromosphere with many prominences of floating gas visible on the far left and right edges of the disk, but little magnetic activity visible elsewhere.
