Summary

Description
English: Using the GOES-17 Solar Ultraviolet Imager (SUVI) in a novel way, Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) researchers at NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information captured the first-ever images of dynamics in the sun’s elusive middle corona. These SUVI observations reveal how the middle corona influences the solar wind and eruptions from the sun, a finding that could improve space weather forecasting. The study was published in Nature Astronomy on August 2, 2021.

The SUVI experimental enhanced coronal imaging study provided the first-ever imagery of the sun’s elusive middle corona in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light. These observations revealed the structure, temperature, and nature of EUV emissions from this region.
