The earliest datable sunspot drawings based on Johannes Kepler’s solar observations with camera obscura in May 1607. Kepler accompanied the drawings with descriptions in Latin of the sunspots he was observing. (Image credit: Public Domain) “Half-forgotten” sunspot drawings by Renaissance astronomer Johannes Kepler are showing us more about how the sun’s cycle of activities work.
These 17th-century drawings of the sun by Kepler add fire to solar cycle mystery Read More »
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has ruled out S-shaped bends in the sun’s magnetic field as a cause of the corona’s searing temperatures, according to a study by the University of Michigan published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters. The sun’s corona, which resembles a crown, can be 200 times hotter than the sun’s surface despite being

Two loops of “dark” plasma exploded from the sun yesterday (July 21), and a NASA spacecraft caught it on video. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) watched as two loops of cool, dense plasma erupted from the sun’s surface, looking eerily similar to a pair of dementors from Harry Potter hovering over the sun. However, instead
This coronal mass ejection, captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory spacecraft, erupted on the sun on Aug. 31, 2012. (Image credit: NASA/GFSC/SDO) Imagine if scientists could give us even more of a heads up before an opportunity to see a supercharged aurora display. Researchers at Aberystwyth University in Wales say that they’ve figured out a
