lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:02:48 UTC

Heat and gravity propel nuclear fusion and power the sun's heat and light in the core.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:09:21 UTC

Radiates energy by the means of photon emission.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:11:10 UTC

Creates solar granulation by bringing energy to the surface.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:22:10 UTC

The surface of the sun where light is emitted.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:25:36 UTC

Where filaments and prominences occur, only seen during a total eclipse as it is made of gases.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:29:49 UTC

A "crown" of plasma surrounding the sun that is only seen during a total solar eclipse.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:32:17 UTC

Parts of the sun's surface that appear darker than the rest because they are cooler.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:40:20 UTC

Hot plasma that is released from the sun that is trapped by the magnetic field so it creates an arch.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:43:41 UTC

Plasma released from the sun that is not trapped by the magnetic field so it appears like a flame.

lcp0726 — 2015-07-31 15:51:38 UTC

Caused by Coronal Mass Ejections when a magnetic field snaps and sends plasma into space.
