From XRT with Love
|
When observing the Sun in soft X-ray with XRT, we sometimes find an active region(AR) taking the form of a heart shape. The latest example was passing across the Sun during the last week, a week earlier than the Valentine's day in 2019. The above image is a collage of the heart-shaped ARs collected from XRT's past observations. The latest one appears at the bottom of the image. You can find more information in the movie about the individual ARs, or you can simply enjoy the hearty images formed by the Sun. Happy Valentine's day from the XRT team.
