Description

Lots of fellows always ask me about the scale of the solar activities, on the surface and on the limb. Because of this I decided to chose this high res full disc mosaic imaged on 2012-08-31 @ 19-17-18gmt and superimpose an overlay with circles and lines that allow us to measure the size of solar surface activities, as well as, to measure the height of the protuberances.

Also two discs showing the diameters of Jupiter and Earth are apparent for further comparison.

Just hover over the Sun with the extended resolution and measure the activities present in this view.

This overlay it is not mine, but I found it so long ago in the internet that I can't remember who actually design it to give the proper credits. If someone knows about the author of this great tour, please leave a note and I will edit this entry with the correction.
