Solar Orbiter Obtains 1st Images of the Sun’s Poles
The robotic Solar Orbiter spacecraft has obtained the first images ever taken of our sun’s two poles as scientists seek a deeper understanding of Earth’s host star, including its magnetic field, its 11-year cycle of activity and the solar wind.
Small-scale solar flares offer key clues about how magnetic reconnection occurs in the Sun’s lower atmosphere. These events help us better understand the energy dynamics that drive space weather and solar activity. Scientists used the world’s largest telescope to observe a microflare, a tiny but powerful solar explosion. Image: Adobe.
