NRL Discovers Inverse Relationship Between Solar Corona Brightness and CME Velocity (IMAGE)
Caption
An image sequence from the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory’s (NRL) Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronagraph Experiment (LASCO) C2 coronagraph observing a fast coronal mass ejection, as mentioned in the study, on September 10, 2017. The Sun is at the center of the visual, hidden by a solid disk that blocks blinding sunlight and enables observations of the much fainter solar corona.
