The Sun, (Granules: convective cycles seen as “small dots”, visible on…

- - - - This layer's temperature ranges from 1 million eight hundred thousand degrees fahrenheit or 1 million degrees celsius.
- - - - The photosphere can be thought of as the suns surface.
        
        The corona is hotter than the photosphere.
      - The only time you can see the corona of the sun is during a solar eclipse.
        
        Solar Wind is a stream of subatomic particles that flow away from the sun.
        
        The light we see now formed in the sun's core is about 100,000- 200,000 years ago.
        
        A moving electric charge generates a magnetic field.
        The magnetic fields on the sun can get tangled up.
        
        Sunspots don’t decrease the energy output of the sun.
        
        Prominences are known as “fiery arches”.
        
        Solar Flare is when magnetic fields “snap”.
        
        A Solar storm is known to cause a power outage.
        A massive solar storm can cause great damage to satellites and other technology on earth.
- - - - Energy that is produced in the core radiates outward to the edge of the sun through this zone; temperatures here range from 12 million degrees fahrenheit to 4 million degrees fahrenheit.
      - Energy travels from the radiative zone to the convective zone in which energy is transferred by gases moving in convection cycles.
        
        The temperature in the convective zone would range from 4 million degrees fahrenheit or two million degrees celsius.
