In the spirit of everyone’s favourite scary holiday, NASA has released several photographs of beautiful yet slightly spooky space phenomena.
The eerily stunning images shared on NASA’s official Twitter and Instagram accounts, were captured by several different programs across the agency.
The first features an incredibly menacing image of our sun, resembling a creepy burning face and was taken by NASA’s Heliophysics Division’s Solar Dynamics Observatory which specifically monitors the sun.
Happy #Halloween from the Sun! Our star put on a spooky jack-o’-lantern face in 2014, seen here in extreme ultraviolet light by our Solar Dynamics Observatory. The bright spots are active regions, areas of intense magnetic fields. Details & download: https://t.co/GVWPleTqpu pic.twitter.com/7MsRDiS8bp
