First Light for Sunrise III: the first tests with real sunlight were successful. The balloon-borne solar observatory should be ready for launch at the end of May.
In analyzing solar observations from the 19th century, scientists are turning to amateur researchers for help. The project will allow to better understand the history of our star.
Astronomical teamwork: By combining data from Solar Orbiter and SDO, a group of researchers has unambiguously determined the magnetic field at the solar surface.
