Study Identifies Plasma Formation as a Pseudostreamer
ESA’s Solar Orbiter recorded a giant plasma structure extending millions of kilometres from the Sun’s surface. The footage, taken on October 12, 2022, shows a swirling motion in the solar wind, a phenomenon never observed before. Scientists identified the formation as a pseudostreamer caused by a solar flare near the Sun’s north pole. The pla...

Study Finds Coronal Loop Flickers Could Predict Solar Flares Hours in Advance
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory has revealed a potential breakthrough in predicting solar flares. Scientists observed brightness fluctuations in coronal loops—plasma structures in the Sun's atmosphere—that intensify hours before solar flares occur. This discovery, with a prediction accuracy of 60–80%, may provide 2–6 hours of advance warn...

NASA Supercomputers Help Unravel Complex Movements of the Sun’s Inner Layers
NASA supercomputers have provided a detailed look into the Sun’s complex inner workings by simulating its plasma flows. Using data from various space missions, including the Solar Dynamics Observatory, researchers have recreated turbulent motions and shock waves within the Sun’s layers. These insights will enhance space weather predictions, whi...

Japan’s XRISM Telescope Delivers Insights from a Supermassive Black Hole and a Supernova
Less than a year since Japan's X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) launched, it has delivered its first results, uncovering crucial information about black holes and supernova remnants. XRISM is a collaborative effort between the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and the European Space Agency (ESA). Its observations have revealed...
