“Hearing” the Solar Wind
Posted in Astronomy at 21:00 on 26 January 2020
The solar wind is of course not actually a sound wave but a stream of particles blown out from the Sun. However NASA’s solar probe has enabled scientists to translate the particles’ impacts and other data into sound. (The video feed is from Parker’s sideways viewing camera; if it pointed forward the Sun’s glare would destroy it.)
