A fury is building on the surface of the Sun - high-velocity jets, a fiery wave that reaches 100,000 kilometers high, rising loops of electrified gas. What's driving these strange phenomena? How will they affect planet Earth? As digital technology and electrical grids have spread, scientists have found that violent solar storms pose a threat on the scale of hurricanes Katrina and Harvey.

  • It is hard to appreciate the disparity between the internal heat of the Sun (a supposed 15 million degrees Celsius,) the relative 5500 C 'coolness' of the Photosphere and the 1 - 10 million degrees ascribed to the Corona, the problem referred to as 'The Coronal heating problem'. Magnitudes such as these can be hard to appreciate, so here is a model that can help: Drop the temperature of the Photosphere shell to 0 Degrees Celsius so it is the temperature of a snowball. Then drop the temperatures of the core and Corona in proportion. You end up with a core that is 2,700 C - hot enough to melt steel - and a Corona that varies from 180 C to 1,800 C - a temperature so hot that you if you were standing in the vicinity, you would parboil or vaporize, your choice. - And all that with a snowball shell sandwiched in between. Seen through the lens of the Laws of Thermodynamics, that is one hell of a problem. The fusion core hypothesis simply doesn't make sense.
