DATARIAU.COM – Astronomers say the sun is unstable, the sun is observed to be spinning out of its rotation even the light is scattered. The situation occurred after the eruption of the star known as Dragon Star or EK Draconis.
This dwarf star is located 110.71 light years from Earth. Light travels at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second.
As reported by Unilad, scientists have previously stated that solar flares spread mass that affects the environment on Earth.
“This mass scattering could theoretically also occur in our sun. These observations can help us better understand how similar events have affected Earth, and even the planet Mars over the last billion years,” said study co-author Yuta Notsu of the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP).
The study, published in the journal Nature, shows that M-type red dwarf stars are not as stable as previously thought.
M-star refers to the most abundant star in the universe and the smallest star that has hydrogen fuel. This type of star usually has a mass of about 0.6 times the mass of the Sun.
However, the sun appears to be less active than similar stars in terms of variations in brightness caused by sunspots and other phenomena.
The researchers said yesterday that they are studying 369 stars similar to the sun for their surface temperature, size and rotation period.
