Mystery of Sun's hot corona may be solved

Font size: Decrease font Enlarge font

The Atmospheric Imaging Assembly on the Solar Dynamics Observatory captures images of the sun's corona. This image shows the 1.5 million-degree solar atmosphere and is taken at the start of the Hi-C sounding rocket observations. A small NASA space telescope has revealed surprising magnetic braids of super-hot matter in the sun's outer atmosphere, a find that may explain the star's mysteriously hot corona, researchers say.
