🔭 Sun's surface secrets revealed by Inouye Telescope ☀️

The Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope observed countless Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities on the sun's surface for the first time. This finding was made by international researchers using the telescope located atop Haleakalā on Maui, Hawaii. Observations confirmed these vortices, with spacing between 50-65 km, and were published in Nature on August 5, 2026. These vortices are thought to be a steady driving force that twists magnetic fields, helping explain solar flares and CMEs. The team plans to use pattern recognition to improve space weather prediction accuracy.
