NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“All the Colors of the Sun” is copyrighted by Nigel Sharp. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Our Sun's light contains nearly every color, but appears brightest in yellow-green. This spectrum, created at the McMath-Pierce Solar Observatory, reveals dark lines where gases on the Sun's surface absorb specific colors of light. These missing colors help astronomers understand the composition of our star.
