SOHO image of solar (Sun) rotation rate with depth
Solar rotation. Cutaway artwork of the Sun, showing how the rotation rate of the Sun varies with depth and position, based on data from the Solar Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) satellite. The image is colour-coded to represent rotation speed, from red (fastest), through orange, yellow, green, and light blue, to dark blue (slowest). The material at the solar equator is moving about 4800 kilometres (km) per hour faster than that at the poles. The flow of hot, electrically-charged gas (plasma) under the equator is about 480, 000 km wide & 208, 000 km deep. Smaller streams of plasma (light blue) exist at the poles. Data taken by SOHOs Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) instrument

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing cutaway artwork of the Sun, revealing the intricate details of its rotation rate with depth and position. Based on data collected by the Solar Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) satellite, this image is a testament to the remarkable advancements in solar science. The color-coded representation of rotation speed adds an artistic touch to this scientific marvel. From fiery red, denoting the fastest rotation, to deep blue symbolizing slower movement, every shade tells a story about our nearest star's dynamic nature. Notably, at the solar equator, there is a striking contrast in motion compared to the poles. The material here races through space at an astonishing speed of 4800 kilometers per hour faster than that found near the celestial ends. This flow is driven by hot plasma—a scorching stream of electrically-charged gas—spanning an impressive width of 480,000 kilometers and diving down into depths reaching 208,000 kilometers. Even at the poles where smaller streams of light blue plasma exist amidst cooler temperatures, we witness subtle yet significant variations in rotational dynamics. Thanks to SOHO's Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) instrument capturing these invaluable data points from across our vast cosmos; scientists can delve deeper into understanding our Sun's behavior and unraveling mysteries that have fascinated humanity for centuries. This awe-inspiring photograph serves as both a visual spectacle and a reminder of how far we have come in exploring and comprehending one of nature's most enigmatic
