In an advanced discovery, scientists have discovered where dangerous solar storms came from that could even help them predict the horrific explosions from the Sun. Solar storms are essentially the events in which the sun emits fully-heated radioactive material that causes geomagnetic storms and can cause communication on the Earth and cause disturbance. put on satellites among other things.
While a solar storm like the one that occurred back in 1859 may be more devastating today, researchers at University College London (UCL) with George Mason University in the United States believe that they have traced the origin of these grains, predicting when they may strike again.
Published in the journal Science Advances, the researchers have stated in their findings that the grains that burn out of the sun have the same “fingerprints” as their ‘plasma located low in the corona of the sun near the center of the atmospheric region. According to the Telegraph report, the study’s co-author Dr Stephanie Yardley, from UCL, said that their study has seen for the first time “exactly where sunflowers come from Sunshine. ”
She said that “our evidence supports theories” about the charged particles emanating from the sun come from plasma held low in the atmosphere by strong magnetic fields. Upon its release, Yardley explained that the “energetic particles” are then accelerated by explosions that travel at a speed of a few thousand kilometers per second. In addition, the study’s co-author said they can “reach Earth very quickly”. She also said that by understanding the whole process, the scientists would be able to develop projections that would take more time to prepare.

Meanwhile, in July 2020, the solar orbiter sent by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the European Space Agency (ESA) returned the first data that was considered “the closest images to ever of the Sun. “In a statement, NASA project scientist Holly Gilbert for the mission at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, said,” These unique images of the Sun are the closest we’ve ever seen. ever … These amazing images will help scientists to assemble the atmospheric layers of the sun, which is important for understanding how it controls space weather near Earth and across the solar system. ”
