Have you ever wondered what’s inside the Sun, the massive star that powers our solar system? In this video, we take a deep ...

Here’s how it works. The sun's atmosphere is made up of several layers, mainly the photosphere, the chromosphere and the corona. It's in these outer layers that the sun's energy, which has ...

So in this layer (and higher layers) it actually gets hotter if you go further away from the Sun, unlike in the lower layers, where it gets hotter if you go closer to the centre of the Sun.

Flow zone The sun is a white-hot ball of plasma that's boiling on its surface. This boiling region is called the "convection zone," where layers and plumes of plasma roil and flow. The convection ...

Peeling back each of Earth's layers reveals a lot about ... McDonough, William F., and S-S. Sun. "The composition of the Earth." Chemical geology 120.3-4 (1995): 223-253. Helffrich, George R., ...

"We show that isolated perturbations near the sun's surface, far from the deeper layers, can grow over time ... which has remained shrouded in mystery for four centuries, could lie close to ...

The Earth's interior is composed of four layers, three solid and one liquid—not magma but molten metal, nearly as hot as the surface of the sun. The deepest layer is a solid iron ball ...

but a new study has found that they may come from beams of high-energy electrons burrowing through the outer layers of the sun. Sunquakes are waves in the sun’s photosphere – the surface from ...

The apparent texture of the sun comes from the varying densities and temperatures within its surface, which has layers similar to an onion. By “tuning” in to different wavelengths, or colors ...
