I had a great time chatting on #Futureproof with @jonathanmccrea.bsky.social on @newstalkfm.bsky.social this weekend, talking about @esascience.esa.int #SolarOrbiter and how we're uncovering new insights about our Sun! ☀️🛰️

Today, on International Day of Women and Girls in Science, I’m proud to be one of over 100 women contributing to the Solar Orbiter mission! 🚀

Five years of Solar Orbiter - and counting! 🌞 ✨ 🚀
#WomenInScience #SolarOrbiter #IDWGS #heliophysics

Looking forward to the new insights the PUNCH mission will bring on the corona and solar wind - and looking forward to playing with the observational data 🌞🐍! Best of luck to the team for a successful launch in the coming weeks! ☀️🚀" #heliophysics

Spotted some apt graffiti by Broombridge this morning while cycling along the Royal Canal to Dunsink - right at the spot where Hamilton first wrote it down:

i² = j² = k² = ijk = -1

EUV images of the Sun from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory are back on SolarMonitor! solmon.dias.ie/fulldisk?dat...

We have a PhD studentship to look at the causal relations in space weather (specifically, the effects of quasi-periodic solar flares on the ionosphere). It's a joint project across depts of Computer Science and Meteorology at Reading. Details here:

X-rays from a coronal mass ejection (CME)? 🌞💥
My recent @ESASolarOrbiter science nugget shows how escaping CMEs can produce high-energy X-ray emission, giving us some fresh insights into solar eruptive event particle acceleration ⚡

Check out this video+sonification showing how ESA's Solar Orbiter mission has captured the Sun’s increasing activity! 🌞

I worked on making this movie, combining EUV images from EUI (☀️) and X-ray flare data from STIX. Sonification by Klaus Nielsen.

See and hear below! 🎆👇

Check out this nice thread about @ryanjfrench.bsky.social's new paper about some very nice pulsations in a solar flare as seen from #solarorbiter and IRIS 👇

🌞🚀🛰🤓

#SolarOrbiter released four new Sun images, assembled from high-resolution observations by the spacecraft's PHI and EUI instruments made on 22 March 2023. The PHI images are the highest-resolution full views of the Sun's visible surface to date.
