TRACE observatory and the Sun, artwork
Solar coronal loops. Computer artwork based on the ultraviolet TRACE image of the Sun, showing coronal loops following a solar flare event observed in November 2000. The loops comprise electrically charged gases (plasma) at millions of degrees Celsius, thousands of times hotter than the Suns surface. Gas is heated as it is ejected from the surface and follows the path of magnetic field lines before crashing back down on the Suns surface at over 100 kilometres per second. TRACE (Transition Region and Coronal Explorer) is a space observatory launched in 1998 to study the Sun at ultraviolet wavelengths

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork captures the mesmerizing beauty and immense power of our Sun. The TRACE observatory has provided us with a stunning view of solar coronal loops, depicted in this computer-generated image. These loops are composed of electrically charged gases, known as plasma, which reach temperatures millions of degrees Celsius - thousands of times hotter than the surface of the Sun itself. In November 2000, an extraordinary solar flare event was observed by TRACE, leading to these magnificent loops being formed. As gas is ejected from the Sun's surface, it follows the path defined by magnetic field lines before crashing back down on the scorching hot solar surface at speeds exceeding 100 kilometers per second. TRACE (Transition Region and Coronal Explorer) is a space observatory specifically designed to study our closest star using ultraviolet wavelengths. Launched in 1998, this satellite has revolutionized our understanding of the Sun's behavior and its impact on our solar system. This breathtaking illustration not only showcases intricate details but also highlights key aspects such as magnetism and high temperatures associated with solar activity. It serves as a reminder that exploration and research into astrophysics continue to unlock mysteries within our universe throughout the 21st century.
