5 Discoveries Parker Solar Probe Made (and HEARD) on the Sun

[@LaunchPadAstronomy]

🔴 Parker is now working with ESA's Solar Orbiter! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZyqgaWPfZh6gMU

[@gilbertorivera2011]

Thank you for the great video. We all have heard the saying "no one can hear your screams in space". I put that same concept to how was the satellite able to capture sounds when there is no oxygen for the sound waves be carried?

[@LaunchPadAstronomy]

Appreciate it. The 'sounds' aren't true sounds, but rather the plasma waves that Parker's FIELDS instrument detected. The great thing about waves is that you can play them back at a frequency humans can hear ;)

[@gilbertorivera2011]

Thank you for clearing that up and makes sense. Using the same logic that is probably what the astronauts heard on the moon mission.

[@MrBlitz-kr2wo]

The word Corona hits different at this time...

[@aaronmicalowe]

How about this theory? In order to have temperature you need something that can vibrate. Perhaps there is just more matter to absorb the radiation from the sun in the corona so it is able to reach a higher temperature. Why it can't do this on the surface I'm not sure, but perhaps there a different force dominates.

[@frogstamper]

If you are not blown away by the total majesty of these stunning videos then you're missing a sense of wonder and awe, beautifully narrated and presented, I'm so glad I've found you're channel.

[@TheNasaDude]

I really didn't grasp how revolutionary the Parker solar probe is. James Webb gets a lot of attention, but all these other missions are important and, one might say, necessary to extract more knowledge from Webb. Thank you Christian for bringing us these astronomy news

[@LaunchPadAstronomy]

My pleasure, I'm glad you thought so!

[@medea27]

The 'sounds' & sonification of the universe are endlessly fascinating... I love that planets like Jupiter & Saturn make sounds that a Moog synthesiser would be jealous of, while the sun whistles like a pan-pipe or flute 🎵

High School Science Teacher!! Prior to teaching Science I spent 33 years in ionizing radiation detection research. I didn't work in high energy physics radiation detection, rather I worked with novel ionizing radiation detectors for detecting thermal to fast neutrons (fission neutrons) in the presence of a gamma and beta radiation background. I therefore understand ionizing radiation detection and this project would have been AWESOME to work on!! Thank you for a very interesting presentation!! I just finished explaining the protective action of the Earth's magnetic field and how these solar charged particles would kill life on Earth were it not for Earth's magnetic field!!

[@marcelinomagalong5881]

It's a very interesting knowledge to know and hear and see about our environment ..many thanks to the teams effort for imparting those knowledge ..

[@Space-Audio]

Note that some of these signals really are waves propagating via the plasma medium, thus involving moving particles, and are therefore not merely "sonifications", but just a bit like sound. FIELDS detects frequent "ion acoustic" waves that propagate just like longitudinal pressure waves in our atmosphere. And, finally, many of these plasma waves do occur at audible frequencies, so this is really what they "sound" like.

So Lucid, so enticing, so exciting! Dr. Christian Ready elucidates seemingly esoteric stuff so well, not only that it is palatable for non-experts, but it also invokes an urge in them to learn about the mysteries in the Universe...and the universe has an inexorable stock of them! As has been rightly said, a host of phenomena in the Universe, hitherto undiscovered... all have been patiently waiting for our human wits to sharpen!

@@ronaldthwaites177 yup. That is the only sad idea I contemplate as I think of humans exploring the galaxy. We are doing everything we can to poison and destroy the Earth, will we take our destructive ways to other worlds too? Will we spread through the Milky Way like a cancer? I hope that humanity learns our lesson with the Earth and that it isn't too late to reverse the damage. And that we don't do the same elsewhere.

[@Dragrath1]

Regarding the Sun's far more extreme than expected Co-rotation I wonder if it might have some connection not only to the quietness of the Sun but also to the surprisingly regular solar reversals which are apparently not common around other G type main sequence stars that at least in data so far appear to be more irregular in magnetic reversal and more magnetically active than our Sun also leading recently to the rare Sun hypothesis. Given the hypothesis that the reversal of the sun's magnetic field might be induced by the coalignment of Venus Earth and Jupiter every 11 years. It is an interesting idea but if true perhaps the Sun hasn't lost its angular momentum via solar storms but the energy may have gotten trapped in the corotation? This might happen because the Sun's magnetic fields couldn't get to build up large amounts of magnetic energy from the short regular reversal preventing the Sun from losing most of its angular momentum via enormous Coronal Mass Ejections and solar flare events. This would also possibly explain the Sun's outlier status among sampled G type stars relative to their rotation curves as a proxy for age since if the Sun was holding onto more angular momentum than typical G type stars then stars with similar rotation rates to the Sun would be far younger and thus more active. An additional possible support of this comes from the temperature discrepancy when using rotation age as a proxy since our Sun is hotter than those other stars given that stars get hotter over their main sequence lifetime this would be expected if the Sun was significantly older than most stars with its rotation rate Regardless with the increasing evidence that our Sun is an outlier among G type stars we will need to be careful with interpreting results from our Sun to other stars. It also raises the alarming possibility that the apparent quiescence of the Sun is more akin to damming a river preventing the bulk flow from escaping trapping all that angular momentum in the Sun for our solar system's 4 billion year history. If true this wouldn't have much of an effect so long as the 11 year solar cycle holds but it could be a problem if the cycle stops as you might incidentally get some kind of super flare as the magnetic dam bursts....

The idea that we're hearing something that would never be possible for human beings to ever encounter is so fascinating to me. Like, that's a sound that does not exist as far our entire existence is concerned. Evolution and all our historical experiences would never take such a sound into consideration. I love it. How coooooool!

[@scuppo]

What does it sound like

[@pro0011000]

That's a great video. Thanks for this one.

[@kneekoo]

Do the switchbacks form within a certain range away from the sun? That would make it likely that the sun's gravity could contribute to, or even cause, the collapse of the solar winds, when they lose some energy and "switch back" towards the sun, but then they get hit back by more radiation and turn away from the sun, where the star's gravity can no longer influence the winds' direction. While gravity seems like a plausible factor to me, I mentioned the "certain range" away from the sun because a smaller stream of solar wind is likely to collapse closer to the star, and larger winds farther. P.S. Please use manual focus on your camera. The first few seconds were not eye-friendly. :)

[@giovanniguarino9152]

I would not love at all when the data coming from the observation goes against the predicted ones. When this happens too often, as it happens, it means that not only some side-hypothesis are wrong, but also the general theory from which they came is not fully exact.
