Visit Quark Magnesium I b2-line opens up a new window of solar observation, revealing
strong areas magnetized of the Sun in the bright Magnesium I (b2) at 5172.8 Å.
As the human eye is particularly sensitive to this wavelength, the image obtained is more "bright". such as Calcium, Alpha Hydrogen or even Sodium,
which greatly facilitates visual observation and reduces exposure time for photography.
