GONG data-based time-lapse videos of solar activity cycle

John Boyd, an amateur astronomer and a retired Mathematician who used to work in the space program for NASA has recently created a time-lapse video spanning from 2020 to 2024  using the H-alpha Gong images. The videos, which are available via John's YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@Ha656nm,  are intended for the outreach for local astronomy club (the Santa Barbara Astronomical Units, SBAU) and educational purposes.
