Scientists reveal Sun's corona in unprecedented detail

Scientists have captured unprecedented, high-resolution images of the Sun's corona, revealing intricate details of its dynamic behavior. This breakthrough offers new insights into solar activity. Using adaptive optics on a ground-based telescope, researchers observed the corona's faint plasma, previously difficult to study. The images show dynamic solar prominences and coronal rain, providing crucial data on the Sun's magnetic field. The observations, published in Nature Astronomy, could help scientists understand solar eruptions and their impact on Earth's space weather. This advancement reduces reliance on space-based instruments for solar research.
