RGB to HSL Conversion Equations, Dana, Brian and the eternal species

I was looking at the AIA 171 videos at Solar Dynamics Observatory. I took on of the images into paint and checked the RBG and HSL values. I was surprised that the hue did not change. It almost seems as they used a fixed hue and changed the saturation and intensity. What are the equations

OpenAI and Richard talk about space, data and global open systems

I am looking at Solar Dynamics Observatory images. During the year does the earth (and earth based telescopes) move above and below the ecliptic? Does the sub earth point of the visible center of the sun change in solar latitude during the year? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, the Earth does move slightly above and below
