Autumn and the Active Sun

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

As the Sun crosses the celestial equator, autumn begins for Earth's Northern Hemisphere. This autumnal equinox finds an increasingly active Sun approaching a solar cycle maximum. The solar activity cycle is driven by a periodic winding up of the Sun's internal magnetic field. This colorized picture is a mosaic of recent ultraviolet images from the TRACE satellite.
