Welcome to lerue.
Here you will find facts, information, photographs and poetry all relating to the sun.
The sun is at the centre of our solar system, and is the energising life-force for all plants and animals on earth.
Without the sun there would be no life on earth.
The world we knw would be gone, and all would be a barren, frozen waste.
So, enjoy the warmth of the sun - enjoy lerue - and visit again soon.
Photograph of the Sun
This photograph of the Sun, is a full-disk view of the X-ray Sun and was produced by the Yohkoh solar observatory in 1991. The structures that can be seen consist of large and hot (>2MK) coronal magnetic structures. This particular image, one of millions, shows a quite active corona from near the maximum of the solar cycle. At the upper right (solar northwest) one can see an "X-ray jet") squirting outwards - this was one of Yohkoh's original discoveries. Photo Credit: NASA
