“Venus and the Chromosphere” is copyrighted by Stefan Seip. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteAstronomer Stefan Seip captured this detailed image of the Sun during the 2004 Transit of Venus from Stuttgart, Germany. The picture, taken through an H-alpha filter, shows a network of cells and dark filaments against the bright solar disk. It also reveals spicules and prominences along the Sun's limb. The H-alpha filter transmits only red light from hydrogen atoms, emphasizing the solar chromosphere, the atmosphere just above the photosphere.
