"explanation: our sun may look all soft and fluffy, but it's not. our sun is an extremely large ball of bubbling hot gas, mostly hydrogen gas. the above picture of our sun was taken last month in a specific red color of light emitted by hydrogen gas and then color inverted to appear blue. in this light, details of the sun's chromosphere are particularly visible, highlighting numerous thin tubes of magnetically-confined hot gas known as spicules rising from the sun like bristles from a shag carpet."
cool!
