The reason for seismic activity on the Sun's surface may be hidden under the solar surface.

 


The results, published in the journal Astrophysical Journal Letters, state that the acoustic source is buried about 700 miles below the surface of the Sun, which scientists previously estimated may be above the surface. New studies show that during the solar flare, there is seismic activity on the surface of the Sun, the cause may be hidden under the solar. On the surface of the Sun, there are many solar flare, which produces waves, sound, energy, it is like a wave, which comes out first and then disappears as soon as it comes back inside.

Earthquakes that occur on the surface of the Sun release acoustic energy in the form of rippling waves, It is the outbreak of light, energy and material visible in the outer atmosphere of the Sun. A seismic emission originating in the Sun that indicates a submersible with its source, which is approximately one mm below the active zone, is also the cause of solar flare.

Researchers previously hypothesized that the sun's light was driven by magnetic forces or external hits, and that the waves passed beneath the surface of the sun, and reached deep into the interior. But the researchers found something different in the results of the new study, in 2011 the Solar Dynamics Observatory observed a slight earthquake with moderately strong waves, emanating from a strong solar glow.

Scientists were able to track the waves with the help of heliosymic holography techniques, a technique used to reconstruct a 3D image of the sources of acoustic waves emanating from the M9.3-square flare on 30 July 2011. Scientists have found a source component in the images, submerging a full Mm below the photographic region of the active region.

The signature of acoustic sources deep in the solar interior opens up new ideas in physics for scientists, which should be involved in transient acoustic emission from flares, and possibly in mass flare physics. Scientists have still not been able to find out exactly what causes the mechanism to cause sunlight, but the results indicate that they are likely to originate below the surface.

NASA/ESA Hubble Telescope Captures Image of Supernova to Aid Distance Measurements.

  The Hubble Space Telescope has recently captured a striking image of a supernova-hosting galaxy, located approximately 600 million light-years away in the constellation Gemini. This image, taken about two months after the discovery of supernova SN 2022aajn, reveals a bright blue dot at the center, signifying the explosive event. Although SN 2022aajn was first announced in November 2022, it has not yet been the subject of extensive research. However, Hubble's interest in this particular supernova lies in its classification as a Type Ia supernova, a type that is key to measuring cosmic distances. Type Ia supernovae occur when a star's core collapses, and they are particularly useful for astronomers because they have a predictable intrinsic brightness. No matter how far away a Type Ia supernova is, it emits the same amount of light. By comparing its observed brightness to this known luminosity, astronomers can calculate how far away the supernova — and its host galaxy — are from...

Solar Storm Shocker: Earth Gets a Cosmic Makeover with Two New Radiation Belts!

  The May 2024 solar storm formed two new radiation belts between the Van Allen Belts, with one containing protons, creating a unique composition never observed before. Picture this: May 2024, the Sun throws a massive tantrum, sending a solar storm hurtling toward Earth. The result? Stunning auroras light up the skies, GPS systems go haywire, and—wait for it—Earth gets two brand-new *temporary* radiation belts! That’s right, our planet just got a cosmic upgrade, thanks to the largest solar storm in two decades. And no, this isn’t a sci-fi movie plot—it’s real science, folks!   Thanks to NASA’s Colorado Inner Radiation Belt Experiment (CIRBE) satellite, scientists discovered these new belts, which are like Earth’s Van Allen Belts’ quirky cousins. Published on February 6, 2025, in the *Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics*, this discovery is a game-changer for space research, especially for protecting satellites and astronauts from solar storm shenanigans. ...

Tropical Cyclone Sean Hits Western Australia, Breaking Rainfall Records and Causing Damage.

  On January 17, 2025, a tropical low formed over the Indian Ocean off Western Australia. By January 19, the system had intensified into Tropical Cyclone Sean, marking the second tropical cyclone of Australia’s 2024–2025 season. NASA’s Terra satellite, using the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) instrument, captured a detailed image of the storm at around 10 a.m. local time (02:00 Universal Time) on January 20, 2025. Later that same day, Cyclone Sean reached its peak strength as a Category 4 storm. Despite staying offshore and not making landfall, Cyclone Sean still brought significant impacts to the Pilbara coast. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) reported that Karratha, a coastal city in the region, received a staggering 274.4 millimeters (10.8 inches) of rain in just 24 hours, setting a new single-day rainfall record for the city. The powerful storm caused widespread flooding, with roads submerged, homes affected, and power infrastructure damaged. Se...
