New discovery of the solar atmosphere

Japanese rays, ie the atmosphere contains the solar particles of the sun, larger than expected, exceeding 8 million kilometers from the sun's surface.

Around the sun is a vast atmosphere containing charged particles, through which the magnetic field coils, sun flares explode and columns of matter emerge from the surface.

Now, thanks to NASA's STEREO observatory, scientists discovered the sun's atmosphere spread out more than it thought.

These observations provide the first direct measurement of the inner boundary of the heliosphere, the giant bubble that contains all the particles of electricity surrounding the sun and every planet.

Combined with the information measured from Voyager 1 on the outer edge of the heliosphere, people now have identified the entire extension of this giant 'bubble' , according to Space.com, citing information from the Research Institute. Southwest in the state of Colorado.

Even at a distance of 8 million kilometers from the sun's surface, massive solar storms, or physical eruptions in coronary rings, can affect throughout the sun.

The determination of heliocentric coverage is especially useful for the Solar Probe Plus mission , which will be launched in 2018, because the satellite will reach a distance of 6 million kilometers from the sun, close to more than any other mission before.
