A sunbeam, in meteorological optics, is a beam of sunlight that appears to radiate from the position of the Sun. Shining through openings in clouds or between other objects such as mountains and buildings, these beams of particle-scattered sunlight are essentially parallel shafts separated by darker shadowed volumes.
GIF animation of an Apollonian sphere packing with transparent background. Transparency in computer graphics is possible in a number of file formats.The term "transparency" is used in various ways by different people, but at its simplest there is "full transparency" i.e. something that is completely invisible.
The images would be better with a transparent background. Please tag images with {} if they ... Rose Bowl 2014 logo.gif 160 × 200; 8 KB. Secwa logo.png 400 × 116; 2 KB.
The most prominent of the foreground effects is the dipole anisotropy caused by the Sun's motion relative to the CMBR background. The dipole anisotropy and others due to Earth's annual motion relative to the Sun and numerous microwave sources in the galactic plane and elsewhere must be subtracted out to reveal the extremely tiny variations ...
Ringshine on Saturn as it eclipses the Sun, seen from behind from the Cassini orbiter. Very faint ringshine can be seen on Pandora's dark side. Ringshine is when sunlight is reflected by a planet's ring system onto the planet or onto the moons of the planet. This has been observed in many of the photos from the Cassini orbiter. [6]
The Graphic Interchange Format (GIF; / ɡ ɪ f / GHIF or / dʒ ɪ f / JIF, see § Pronunciation) is a bitmap image format that was developed by a team at the online services provider CompuServe led by American computer scientist Steve Wilhite and released on June 15, 1987.
In volumetric lighting, the light cone emitted by a light source is modeled as a transparent object and considered as a container of a "volume". As a result, light has the capability to give the effect of passing through an actual three-dimensional aerosol (e.g. fog, dust, smoke, or steam) that is inside its volume, just like in the real world.
Image of the Sun's cell-like surface structures. The visible surface of the Sun, the photosphere, is the layer below which the Sun becomes opaque to visible light. [77] Photons produced in this layer escape the Sun through the transparent solar atmosphere above it and become solar radiation, sunlight.
