Solar plage information


In this near true color photograph, taken through a narrowband hydrogen-alpha filter, plages are visible as overexposed patches.

A plage /pl/ is a bright region in the Sun's chromosphere, typically found in and around active regions. Historically, they have been referred to as bright flocculi, in contrast to dark flocculi, and as chromospheric faculae, in contrast to photospheric faculae.[1]
