While a transit of Venus across the Sun's face is incredibly rare (the next is not due until 2117), the planet occasionally travels through the corona, as it did in early June. A coronagraph at NCAR's observatory on Hawaii captured the uncommon passage. skyandtelescope.org/astronom…

What time is it? Solar storm o'clock on the dot. Scientists have created an elegant Sun clock that shows that solar activity starts and stops on a much more precise schedule that many researchers thought. news.ucar.edu/132738/new-sun… @swmcintosh @leamonrj #AGUpubs @warwicknewsroom

Almost 8 years ago exactly, Venus passed across the face of the Sun, in what would be the last Venus transit of our lifetimes. Yesterday we had a ‘near miss’, with Venus passing less than a solar radii above the Sun’s northern edge. (Image credit, MLSO K-Cor) 1/6

Terminator Watch: The southern activity band definitely growing in strength and clarity - the band is lagging but definitely getting more pronounced. Both centered on +/- 30 degrees, but south has more spread. #Terminator2020

Every Friday at @HAOSunEarthLab we have donuts and coffee with colleagues & visitors. Today we kept the tradition going with a virtual donuts on Google Hangouts. Definitely nice to see some familiar faces after a week at home.

And we have a total solar eclipse!!! The AIR-Spec, a specialized eclipse-viewing instrument, will be gathering data on the Sun's corona for the next 8 minutes as the NSF/NCAR GV follows the shadow of the moon. #Totalsolareclipse #solareclipse2019 #solareclipse

Just like that, the eclipse has ended! The @CenterForAstro and @NCAR_Science team onboard was able to track the eclipse all the way through. They seem quite happy, according to the project manager. Congratulations to everyone involved! #TotalSolarEclipse #Eclipse2019

The NSF/NCAR GV is airborne and chasing the #solareclipse! Here is a screenshot from the @ncareol flight catalog, showing the aircraft flight track. The teal blue shows the flight plan, where the scientists will start collecting data! ✈️🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓 #NSFfunded @NSF

Last night, our 2019 Laureates, Drs. @MichaelEMann & Warren Washington, received their Tyler Prize Medals, officially welcoming them into our hall of Environmental Achievement! We are extremely proud of our two Laureates, & thank them for their ongoing dedication to the climate.

Now that’s a new term: the “terminator,” or “the event that marks the hand-over from one sunspot cycle to the next.” #solarphysics #heliophysics #astrophysics #spaceweather

Strange but true: the sun keeps getting quieter...and Earth keeps getting warmer. Thanks to Lisa Upton, @swmcintosh, @mathewjowens, and @johnfocook for their insights. wunderground.com/cat6/Weirdl…

Exciting new work from our Group @NorthumbriaUni !New insights into what’s generating magnetic (Alfvénic) waves in the Sun’s corona - made possible with the excellent CoMP instrument @HAOSunEarthLab and those beautiful SDO images @NASASun
