A group of astrophotographers captured precise pictures of the moment Giant solar storm explosion During a solar eclipse. The images mainly show the ghostly filaments of the sun’s corona, or outer atmosphere, but they also capture a faint glimpse of an eruption of magnetized plasma, known as a coronal mass ejection (CME), blasting away from the sun. According to Livescience: it is known The rare eclipse, captured by a group of astrophotographers which was visible in the skies over Australia, last month, as a hybrid; Because it combines two separate eclipses that occur at the same time, and this included a total eclipse of the sun, which is a transient but complete occultation of the sun, and an annular eclipse of the sun .. a longer eclipse, but incomplete; Where a halo of plasma remains visible around the moon.
Hybrid eclipse
And the “Live Science” website stated that this was the first hybrid eclipse in more than a decade, and that the combined image showed The peak of a total solar eclipse, known as totality, which lasted for about a minute, and was the only time the sun’s corona was fully visible.. However; The details captured in the new image are “much more than what the human eye can see.”
Astrophotographers were hoping to get a glimpse of the corona that day, but they also did not expect to see a coronal mass ejection explosion away from the sun.. The sun’s corona was particularly strong in the new image, which reflects an increase in solar activity, as the sun approaches The peak of the 11-year cycle, known as the sun’s maximum, is set to arrive in the next few years.
The iconic diamond ring
The images also show the iconic “diamond ring” phenomenon; As the sun begins to move behind the moon as its totality ends. The Japanese probe Hakuto-R, which later collided with the moon while attempting to land on the moon’s surface on Tuesday (April 25), captured a stunning “earthrise” image of our planet as it peered out from behind the moon. In this shot, Australia is still covered in the moon’s shadow, appearing as a large, dark spot on the planet’s surface.. In the past, solar eclipses have also provided opportunities for star photographers to capture once-in-a-lifetime images, such as the award-winning ‘Golden Ring’, which Taken by Chinese photographer Xuchang Dong during the 2020 eclipse over Tibet.
