A photographer named Andrew McCarthy managed to take perhaps one of the clearest pictures of the Sun ever taken. McCarthy’s photo reveals all the chaos and beauty of the Sun.
With the naked eye, it’s just a yellow shiny ball standing in the sky. SunIn fact, it has a much more complex and intimidating structure than that. The Sun, which heats everything around it with its energy, together with our planet Earth, was recently discovered by an astrophotographer as a result of long efforts. with magnificent details unfolded before our eyes.
Photographer Andrew McCarthy, with a specially modified telescope More than 150 thousand photos pulled. Then, after about 14 hours of effort, he brought all the photos together and created the Sun photo, which we will see shortly, and these photo fragments. McCarthy’s photo, 300 megapixels was in resolution.
Perhaps the most detailed photo of the Sun
McCarthy took all the frames that make up this photo on November 29, 2021 with the Explore Scientific AR127 telescope he modified. The photographer used the ‘quick shot’ technique to capture the photos. With this technique each photo has a resolution of 2.1 megapixels and it was 16 bits dense.
His final photograph, which he named ‘Fire and Fusion’, allowed us to see the chaotic landscape of the Sun, perhaps most clearly, to date. The photograph, of course, also passed through some human hands. Under normal conditions, the edges of the Sun were getting dark due to the filter he used. But McCarthy, to enable us to see these parts, and especially the plasmas emanating from the Sun, processed the photo.
This photo, another shared photo, showed one of the most active regions of the Sun. At photo magnetic fields can see clearlyWe can also examine more closely the plasmas emanating from the Sun.

By the way, there is an important warning from McCarthy for those who are interested in this work: To look at the sun. it is extremely dangerous to use normal telescopes. It has been reported that some people who look at the Sun with a telescope to date are visually impaired or even blind.
