IFLScience on MSNMagnetic Curtains As Wide As A City Seen On The Sun In Unexpected FindingsThe Sun’s magnetic field is stronger than Earth’s own, and in certain variable regions it can be thousands of times stronger.
"The new coronal adaptive optics system closes this decades-old gap and delivers images of coronal features at 63 kilometers resolution—the theoretical limit of the 1.6-meter Goode Solar Telescope," ...
The corona, the Sun's outermost layer, stretches millions of kilometres into space and is mysteriously hotter than the underlying photosphere, a phenomenon known as the 'coronal heating problem.' ...
Detailed images of the sun's corona have been hampered by turbulence in the Earth's atmosphere. Adaptive optics now make it possible to compensate for this.
