Summary

Description
Deutsch: Sonne von der Raumsonde Solar Orbiter im extrem kurzwelligen UV-Licht aufgenommen. In diesem Wellenlängenbereich wird die äußere, deutlich heißere Schicht der Sonnenatmosphäre, die sogenannte Korona, sichtbar. Mittlere Entfernung 149,6 Mio. km, Äquatorradius: 696342 km.
English: Our Sun, image was captured in extremely short-wafe UV light by the Solar Orbiter spacecraft, launched in 2020. In this wavelength range, the vororna - the outer, much hotter layer of the solar atmosphere - becomes visible. Plasma from the Sun can be seen flowing along magnetic fielt lines and erupting through the corona. Mean distanze: 149,6 million km, Equatorial radius 696 342 km
