ALT Selfie of Sunrise III taken during the stratospheric flight

ALT The Sunrise III solar observatory images the visible surface of the Sun and the lower chromosphere at different wavelengths. Left: The SUSI instrument shows the surface of the Sun in ultraviolet light. Here you can see a sunspot, its finely structured edge area and the typical granulation of the solar surface. The image achieves a spatial resolution of around 50 kilometers. Center: The TuMag instrument images the surface of the Sun in visible light. The four images show different views of sunspots. Right: Infrared images of the chromosphere and photosphere taken by the SCIP instrument. In the upper image, elongated fibril-like structures can be seen in the chromosphere. The lower image shows the corresponding magnetic fields in the chromosphere and photosphere.
