This is our closest star, “The Sun”. The image of our planet was added to show the scale of “Earth” in comparison to several solar prominences.

The solar prominences were taken on April 12, 2021 at 12:54 PM ET, using a Lunt 80MT APO refractor, Daystar Quark Chromosphere H-Alpha filter and Televue 2.5x Powermate, with 200 sub-frames stacked. The camera used, an Altair Hypercam 174M mono CMOS camera.
