A stunning breakthrough in solar physics reveals ultra-fine magnetic structures on the Sun's surface, thanks to the NSF's ...

Using the world's largest solar telescope, a team of scientists has captured one of the most detailed views ever of a ...

Standing in front of a giant projected bar graph, he solemnly explained the possible fate of the world's most powerful eye on ...

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory has just released some of its first images. Its powerful new telescope will be able to quickly ...

The images show ultra-fine bright and dark stripes (called striations) in the thin, gaseous layer of the sun's atmosphere known as the photosphere, according to a statement from the National Solar ...

National Solar Observatory (NSO), and New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), is changing that by using adaptive optics to remove the blur. As published in Nature Astronomy, this pioneering ...

Inouye Solar Telescope, built and operated by the National Solar Observatory (NSO) on Maui, scientists have observed, for the first time ever in such high detail, ultra-narrow bright and dark ...

Advanced ground-based telescopes employ adaptive optics for clarity. The National Solar Observatory applied AO to study the Sun's corona. This research addresses the coronal heating problem and ...

according to a statement from the National Solar Observatory (NSO), which operates the solar telescope. "In this work, we investigate the fine-scale structure of the solar surface for the first ...

A ground-breaking recent development by scientists from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) National Solar Observatory (NSO), and New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), is changing that by ...

But we can correct for that,” Dirk Schmidt, Adaptive Optics Scientist at the National Solar Observatory, who led the development, said in a statement. “Adaptive optics is like a pumped-up ...
