Solar Orbiter Spacecraft Discovers Tiny Jets That Could Power the Solar Wind
The ESA/NASA Solar Orbiter spacecraft has discovered a multitude of tiny jets of material escaping from the Sun’s outer atmosphere. Each jet lasts between 20 and 100 seconds, and expels plasma at around 100 km/s (60 miles/s) or 360,000 km/h (220,000 mph). These jets could be the long-sought-after so
