Do You Love the Color of the Sun?

Get dazzled by the true spectrum of solar beauty. From fiery reds to cool blues, explore the vibrant hues of the Sun in a mesmerizing color order. The images used to make this gradient come from our Solar Dynamics Observatory. Taken in a variety of wavelengths, they give scientists a wealth of data about the Sun. Don't miss the total solar eclipse crossing North America on April 8, 2024. (It's the last one for 20 years!) Set a reminder to watch with us.

A Triangular Prominence

Our Sun is a maelstrom of light and heat, a constant battlefield for plasma and magnetic fields. This recent prominence, captured by Andrea Vanoni and others, bore a striking triangular shape.  (Image credit: A. Vanoni; via APOD) Read the full article

Planet Earth magnetic field

[mindblowingscience]

Earth's magnetic field nearly collapsed some 590 million years ago, presumably putting life on the planet's surface at risk of a rise in cosmic radiation. According to new research, the temporary weakening of the magnetic shielding might have been anything but a biological catastrophe. In fact, it may have boosted oxygen levels, creating prime conditions for early life to blossom. "Earth's magnetic field was in a highly unusual state when macroscopic animals of the Ediacara fauna diversified and thrived," University of Rochester Earth scientist Wentao Huang and colleagues write in their new paper.

Earth's magnetic field was about twice as strong during Roman times as it is now, based on studies of ancient minerals and sediments.

The human heart has a magnetic field that is 5000 times more powerful than the magnetic field of the brain 🤔

Wow wow wow! Last night we experienced another absolutely crazy aurora display. Rain showers passing Schermerhorn (The Netherlands), with dancing pillars and curtains on top. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I thought the aurora of 10 may was a once in a lifetime event. I was wrong.

A theremin that is played by hand without any physical contact and only by creating a magnetic field and changing the volume and frequency of the sound! Theremin was invented in 1919 by Russian physicist Leon Theremin. Today, this unique instrument is very much appreciated by artists. Not only does the theremin sound like nothing, but the way it is played is also unique. In this way, this instrument is played without being touched!

Fun fact, Earth's magnetic field changes all the time. There's even a planetary K index that's updated every 3 hours which is used to quantify this.

Martian Auroras

Auroras happen when energetic particles -- usually from the solar wind -- interact with the atmosphere. Here on Earth, they're most often found near the poles, where our strong global magnetic field converges, funneling particles down from space. Our neighbor Mars has no global magnetic field.  (Image credit: UAE Space Agency/EMM/EMUS and NASA/MAVEN/IUVS; via Physics Today) Read the full article

This is INSANE LMFAO I CANNOT BELIEVE I FUCKING DEFEATED THEM no wonder why they felt so gahdamn real I ain't ever fought an energy that was that FUCKING TERRIFYINGLY TANGIBLE I could still feel their prints on my entire body for hours after waking up after intentionally entering a portal through the dreamworld. They felt fucking realer than fucking humans. They wouldn't let me wake the fuck up in my own room until I energetically beat their ass.

I wanted to know what the fuck happened to me in the portal and what the fuck was that I just encountered and then I fucking see this lmfao baby I'm a terrifyingly undefeated ancient spiritual warrior my soul's ancient you can't defeat me and I know you're mad about that😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈 I wasn't playing when I said EVIL FEAR ME

If I can defeat them, I can fucking defeat ANYTHING...............

A doughnut-shaped region thousands of kilometers beneath our feet within Earth's liquid core has been discovered by scientists from The Australian National University (ANU), providing new clues about the dynamics of our planet's magnetic field. The structure within Earth's liquid core is found only at low latitudes and sits parallel to the equator. According to ANU seismologists, it has remained undetected until now.
