APOD 2.4

The APOD for today is titled "The Flash Spectrum of the Sun" I was immediately intrigued by this picture and decided to pick it for this week's APOD because I was remined of when we looked at light spectrums in class from several angles. This APOD entry speaks of the brief change in the visible spectrum of the sun during a solar eclipse. The entry also mentions and explains why the light spectrum of the Sun appears the way it does. It relates to the chemicals of the sun liek Helium and Hydrogen. This also reminds me of when we did the light spectrum activity in class.
