Jack-o-Lantern Sun Photograph
This image was captured on October 8, 2014 by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). The SDO obverses the sun at all times as it orbits in space and captured this haunting photograph of the sun. The sun flares at this specific time came together to cause the sun to resemble some sort of face. And since it is orange and circular, the “face” looks like a glowing jack-o-lantern.
This is not the first natural illusion captured by satellite cameras from space. If you’d like to check out a couple of others, be sure to revisit the Indian in the Mountain and the Elephant on Mars.
