NASA shares sun image that looks like jack-o-lantern

No, it’s not a trick, but rather a treat for your eyes as “active regions” on the sun almost resemble a jack-o-lantern almost in time for Halloween. This spooky site was taken on October 8th, 2014 by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory satellite. NASA has shared this image again yesterday on Facebook to show that even our star is capable of being in tune with the spooky season. Everyone enjoy the upcoming holiday! I personally need to stock up on some candy so nobody decides to play a trick on me or my residence.
