solar observation

Solar observation involves studying the Sun’s activities and features using specialized instruments like telescopes, satellites, and spectrometers. These observations help scientists understand solar phenomena such as sunspots, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections. Tracking these activities is important because they can impact space weather and Earth’s magnetic environment, affecting communication systems, satellites, and power grids. Modern solar observation combines visual imaging, ultraviolet and X-ray detection, and magnetic field measurements to analyze the Sun’s behavior over time, advancing our knowledge of its influence on our planet.
