The Sun is Getting Closer and it’s Awesome

The sun is getting closer, and we can see it in amazing 4K HD video courtesy of NASA. The sun, which keeps life alive on our planet, is a constant explosion happening a thousand times in different parts of the giant gas star.

The sun constantly sends out giant clouds of sunny material or solar flares, and they can change our space environment. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory keeps a watchful eye on the Sun at all times, and the agency has just released a video where we can see these solar cloud emissions, as well as all movement on the giant star in amazing high definition.

The footage is courtesy of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, and they show amazing footage of the sun getting closer and closer in varying colors of our main source of heat interacting with itself and the space around it. The footage looks almost like an animated film, the sun getting closer into focus and showing us things that we see but can’t quite fully understand, and it’s a beautiful testament to how little we really know about everything outside our atmosphere. The sun is getting closer, or at least feels closer from what can be seen in the footage, and it raises questions about just how close we can get to the sun, or how close it can get to us.
