Unprecedented Radio Images Reveal Stunning Details of Annular Solar Eclipse
Scientists from the New Jersey Institute of Technology's Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research (NJIT-CSTR) have captured the first-ever radio images of an annular solar eclipse using the Owens Valley Radio Observatory Long Wavelength Array (OVRO-LWA) in California. The radio images revealed the extended solar corona, which is not usually visible from the ground. The team is now working on producing near-real-time solar images for the public, which will open new opportunities for discovery in solar astronomy and space weather studies.
