You'll be twirling in sunshine with this sweet skater skirt featuring a real image of the sunspot, the first such image from the National Science Foundation's Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST, pronounced dee-kisst"), the most powerful solar telescope in the world. Part of the National Solar Observatory, it is a 4-meter diameter telescope located at the summit of Haleakalā on the island of Maui, Hawai’i. The image on the skirt was taken on January 28, 2020, with the darker areas representing a "cool" sunspot, only about 6,000° F, compared to 10,000° F for the Sun's surface on average.
Skirt is 82% polyester, 18% spandex, approximately mid-thigh length with flat elastic waistband, overlock seams, and coverstitch hemline. Blank product components sourced from China or Lithuania.
This product is made to order, and exact image placement may vary from the photos shown. It will ship directly from the supplier and may arrive separately from other items in your order. Please allow up to 2-3 weeks for delivery. Images with a white background are digital mock ups from the printer. Image credit: NSO/AURA/NSF.

Customer Reviews
I wore this during the annular solar eclipse and people loved it! It runs a little large/true to size, so don't size up like I did (whoops). I also appreciate that it was asymmetrical; longer in the back to help cover the junk in the trunk.
