• Sunspot with Solar Sonification •Data from SOHO, sonified by the Stanford Experimental Physics Lab, captures the Sun’s natural vibrations and provides scientists with a concrete representation of its dynamic movements. These vibrations allow scientists to study a range of complex motions inside the Sun, from solar flares to coronal mass ejections. Sunspots appear as dark areas on the otherwise bright Sun’s surface. A sunspot is formed as a result of the internal magnetic field bursting through

Solar flares ☀️ Solar flares are huge bursts of energy released from the Sun. These intense bursts of radiation take just a few minutes to reach millions of degrees, and their effects can be devastating, causing blackouts and interfering with satellites. Solar flares sound scary, but they won't exactly destroy Earth. Occasional flares from the Sun could reach our planet if they are especially powerful, at which point they can cause damage to power grids. #freeAstroSci #FollowTheScience #scientif
