DAILY CELESTIAL CHALLENGE!

In today's daily celestial challenge initiated @sirknight, the theme is the sun!!lets take a look at;
LAYERS OF THE SUN

Source

1. The Core:
   
   Source

• Its the innermost layer
• The temperature of the core can reach nearly 15million kelvins I.e 27million degrees Fahrenheit.

1. Photosphere:
   
   Source

• This is the layer that emits sunlight
• Temperature nearly 6000 kelvins
• There are some layers away from the photosphere, we can't see because of its hotness(the hotter gas is the more transparent it will be)

1. Chromosphere:
   
   Source
   *It has a temperature of nearly 7000kelvins,which is about 1000 kelvins hotter than the photosphere.
   *The red circle around the outside of the sun is the Chromosphere.

• We can't see it with our naked eye
• The red coloring is caused by abundant hydrogen.

1. The Corona:
   
   Source
   *It is the outermost layer of the sun

• Its only visible during the eclipses
• Its a low density cloud of plasma
• It ranges from 1million to 3million kelvins nearly 2 to 5 million degrees Fahrenheit.
• It can be very hot but not as much as the core but more than the Chromosphere and photosphere.
  *That is why its not visible, because the hotter the gasses the less visible it is.

1. Sunspots:
   
   Source
   *There are dark spots on the photosphere
   *They are cooler than the other parts of the photosphere

• Around 4500 thousand Kelvins ,about 50,100thousand kelvins lesser than the photosphere
  *That is why it looks dark.
  *They increase and decrease in number and can last 11years.

Hope you enjoyed reading!!
