White Light Photosphere Observed from Space Weather Precidction Center (SWPC)

browse graphicExample Image from Photosphere_White Light_SpaceWeatherPredictionCenter series.
When this data was collected, SWPC was named the Space Environment Lab (SEL) and there was a telescope known as the Boulder Solar Observatory on the roof the building. These images of white light are from that observatory.
