Stereo Sunshine

3-D image of the Sun

In honour of the string of sunny days we are enjoying at the moment here in Southern Ontario, I thought I'd share this 3-D image of the Sun. Take by a pair of satellites that orbit the sun to study solar flares, it needs to be viewed with a pair of anaglyph (red/cyan) glasses to see the 3-D effect.

If you don't have such a pair of 3-D glasses, I'd be happy to send you a pair. Just email me your address and I'll mail them off to you.
