Sounding Rocket-based Camera Reveals Sharpest Images Yet of Sun's Outer Atmosphere
Using an innovative new camera, an international team of scientists have captured the sharpest images yet of the Sun's outer atmosphere. The team used a sounding rocket to launch the NASA High Resolution Coronal Imager (Hi-C) from the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. During its short flight, the Hi-C team obtained images of the solar atmosphere (the solar corona) five times sharper than anything seen before.
