With the science and technology evolving with big leaps each day, we the people on earth living today are the most fortunate beings to learn about many of those great discoveries and inventions on our mobile phones.
In one of biggest achievements so far, the National Science Foundation released the highest resolution photos of the Sun ever taken, captured with a new $344 Million Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, located on the summit of the Haleakala volcano in Maui, Hawaii. The telescope can image a region of the Sun up to 24,000 miles wide.
These new developments will help mankind in understanding the Sun better and also its impact on Earth. The Magnetic eruptions on the Sun can affect our satellite communications, disable GPS, disrupt power grids and also air travel on the Earth. The picture shows the surface of the Sun, which is divided up into discrete cells, almost the size of Texas each. It somewhat appears like a cracked desert soil.
The video shows oozing plasma from the surface and rising high into the solar atmosphere and going back into the darker line gaps. It is a mere boiling gas that forms the surface of the Sun.
Though these pictures of a Peanut Chikki or a Caramel Popcorn like the folks on the Internet are comparing them to, that’s a small area on the surface of Sun, boiling.
