Born In Space
Welcome to Born in Space! In this wep-app, you will be able to have a look at the picture of the day chosen by the NASA. You can also enter your birthdate in the search bar to discover what was the “picture of the day” on the day you were born. Unfortunately, this feature will only work if you are born after June 16th, 1995, this date included. But nothing prevents you from trying it out with your friends’ birthdates! You can also use your personal gallery to save pictures from the dates that have marked your life, such as marriages, births… and directly access these images links. On this site, you will also find a section where to type a keyword that will you return you a collection of images, to let you find your favourite planet, for example!
Picture at your birthday :
How many sunspots can you see? The central image shows the many sunspots that occurred in 2025, month by month around the circle, and all together in the grand central image. Each sunspot is magnetically cooled and so appears dark -- and can last from days to months. Although the featured images originated from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, sunspots can be easily seen with a small telescope or binoculars equipped with a solar filter. Very large sunspot groups like recent AR 4366 can even be seen with eclipse glasses. Sunspots are still counted by eye, but the total number is not considered exact because they frequently change and break up. Last year, 2025, coincided with a solar maximum, the period of most intense magnetic activity during its 11-year solar cycle. Our Sun remains unpredictable in many ways, including when it ejects solar flares that will impact the Earth, and how active the next solar cycle will be.
