Astronomers have found that the sun is more metallic than we previously thought, potentially solving an astronomical mystery that scientists have grappled with for years.
A MYSTERIOUS set of waves have been identified moving within the Sun travelling at a speed that the physicists who revealed them have said presently “defies explanation”.
A NASA spacecraft has officially “touched” the sun, plunging through the unexplored solar atmosphere known as the corona
Earth is on an orderly path around the sun, orbiting in nearly the same plane as our star’s equator. In 2008, however, astronomers began finding worlds in other solar systems that sail far above and below their star’s equatorial plane.
The moon will partially cover the sun in the UK later this week, but some parts of the northern hemisphere will experience a total eclipse
The high-energy particles that come from the Sun could pose a radiation risk to astronauts and people travelling in planes.
Source: Slash Gear Italy’s Borexino detector has confirmed a decades-old theory, finding the first-ever evidence of a carbon-nitrogen-oxygen (CNO) cycle that produces neutrinos in our Sun. The researchers call this a historic achievement, one confirming an 80-year-old theory about the star and shedding light on the ‘dominant channel in the universe for hydrogen burning.’ The
The sun goes through cycles where it has more or less activity, and NASA has now confirmed that Solar Cycle 25 has begun.
New pictures are the first from the Solar Orbiter spacecraft
The space agency gathered 425 million high-resolution images of the sun, which have now been stitched together to form the video
