Thanks to the European Space Agency s Solar Orbiter and its tilted orbit, scientists have captured groundbreaking images and data that are unlocking mysteries about the Sun s magnetic field, its ...
These blemishes mark areas of intense magnetic activity, where solar flares and coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, are likely to occur. Coronal mass ejections are large clouds of ionized gas called ...
The first-ever images of the sun’s south pole reveal a messy jumble of magnetic activity in a never-before-seen region of our nearest star. The images, taken by the Solar Orbiter spacecraft and ...
NOAA's GOES-16 satellite captured the sun blast a "huge rush of mass" that warped the magnetic field, according to the ...
One images the sun in optical light, and another captures ultraviolet light. Two others map the sun's surface magnetic field and capture light from different temperatures of charged gas above the ...
This was the Solar Orbiter mission’s first high-angle observation campaign of the sun, conducted at an angle of 15 degrees below the solar equator. Just a few days after snapping these images ...
Scientists have released the closest images ever to the sun, captured by NASA’s Parker Solar Probe flying 3.8 million miles above the solar surface.
“When the sun is at its minimum, you have a north pole and a south pole, each with its own magnetic polarity,” said Anik De Groof, Solar Orbiter’s mission manager.
Thanks to the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, located in Hawai’i, astronomers have snapped images of these “magnetic curtains” at a scale of 20 kilometers (12.4 miles).
This image of Sagittarius C from the Webb telescope reveals several bands of plasma, which seem to have been formed by strong magnetic fields. (Image credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, SARAO, Samuel ...
A newly released image of the sun captured by the world’s largest solar telescope shows the surface of our nearest star in unprecedented detail, shedding light on its fiery complexity. The image ...
