2025 — The NASA/ESA Solar Orbiter recently recorded the highest-ever concentration of a rare helium isotope (3He) emitted from the Sun. A Southwest Research Institute-led team of scientists ...

It was taken by the Solar Orbiter, a satellite launched five years ago by the European Space Agency (ESA) and Nasa. Its mission is to take images of the Sun closer than any spacecraft has done before.

Five years into its mission, Solar Orbiter stuns again with this detailed view of the Sun. What you see is the Sun’s million-degree hot atmosphere, called the corona, as it looks in ultraviolet ...

The European Space Agency’s Solar Orbiter is studying the Sun like never before. Just two months ago, it used Venus to leave the plane of the Solar System. It is now on a slanted orbit that will ...

The Solar Orbiter has spent five years circling our closest star. On 9 March 2025, it captured its most detailed image so far. The spacecraft used its Extreme Ultraviolet Imager to photograph the ...

Solar Orbiter, STEREO-A and WIND spacecraft that were distributed around the sun. To reproduce the observations, the simulations have been made to follow radio-waves. The research is published in ...
