Coronal Holes and Faces in the Sun


Credit: SDO/AIA June 5,2010

Those who pay attention to what's happening beyond planet Earth have probably seen pictures of the coronal hole which has formed on the sun. When looking at the June 5 picture of the coronal hole, I saw more than the indicated coronal hole on the spaceweather.com website. Here are a few of the other images which are within the bigger picture.


This one is kind of fun. It almost looks like he's laughing. You can even see his front teeth.




This one's not quite decided. There's a closed eye on the left of the picture and an open one on the right. And the nose. Well, don't know what to say about the nose. Looks like a bad accident! Or, maybe it's just out of phase?


Can you see the profiles which form the hole?

June 8 face.
Can you see the large eyes, one dark on the left and one light on the right side of the picture? The nose is right below with the lips outlined in light just below the nose. And how about that big bright ear? It also looks like there might be a smaller profile in the lower right of the picture.

Who said the sun doesn't have a personality?
Have fun with the images. You might want to meditate on what meaning they may have for you.
