STARSET_MirrorTelescope captures most detailed pictures yet of the sun
Why is the sun’s outer atmosphere so much hotter than its surface? What drives its 11-year cycle of magnetic activity? And how does its solar wind propagate out into the solar system? Scientists hope to answer all these questions and more in the coming decade, thanks to an armada of new missions that will scrutinize the sun in more detail than ever before. With the debut of two unprecedented spacecraft and the largest ground-based solar observatory ever built, research into our home star is set to reach new heights.
为什么太阳的外层大气比它的表面热得多？是什么驱动了它11年的磁活动周期？它的太阳风是如何传播到太阳系的？科学家们希望在未来的十年里能够回答所有这些问题以及更多的问题。这些很可能将归功于一支新的任务舰队，他们将比以往任何时候都更仔细地观察太阳。随着两艘史无前例的太空船和有史以来最大的地面太阳观测站的首次亮相，对我们家乡恒星的研究将达到新的高度。
