The data will help scientists explain why the corona temperature, which reaches several million degrees Celsius, is several orders of magnitude higher than the temperature around 5500 degrees on the star’s surface.
In fact, the spacecraft flew through the corona in April during the eighth of the planned 24 orbits around the Sun. However, it took several months for the data to reach the scientists and several other verifications. The probe has already completed the ninth and tenth flights.
