Ultra high definition
“So far, solar astronomers have observed our next star in standard definition. The exceptional quality of the data provided by the Hi-C telescope allows us to see part of the sun in ultra high resolution for the first time. We see the components that make up the atmosphere of the Sterns exists, “says project manager Robert Walsh from the UCLAN in a statement.
As the Plasma threads is still unclear, but the recordings are intended to provide new insights into the magnetic atmosphere of the sun. In order to investigate the origin more closely, the scientists now want more data on the Sun atmosphere collect. Among other things, the ESA Solar Orbiter be used. “This is a fascinating discovery that could improve our understanding of the flow of energy through the sun’s layers and down to Earth itself. This is important if we want to shape and predict the behavior of our life-giving star,” said Tom Williams, co-author of the study.
