This time-lapse movie of a solar prominence shows how plasma “dances” and twists with the Sun’s magnetic field. This video was taken by the Goode Solar Telescope at Big Bear Solar Observatory using the new coronal adaptive optics system Cona. The video shows the hydrogen-alpha light emitted by the solar plasma. The video is artificially colorized, yet based on the color of hydrogen-alpha light, and darker color is brighter light.
