Explanation:
Reddened rays of the setting Sun flooded the skies over
Cedar Creek Lake, southeast of Dallas, Texas, planet Earth on July 6th.
And while sunsets may be the
most watched celestial event,
this one even offered something
extra.
A sunspot so large it was visible to the naked eye is
captured in the serene sunset view, near the center of a solar disk
dimmed
and distorted by Earth's dense atomosphere.
Telescopic views revealed
the spot to be a complex of large
solar active regions composed of sunspots, some
larger than
planet Earth itself.
