zonnesteenwind
Zonnesteenwind, also known as solar wind, is a continuous stream of charged particles, primarily electrons and protons, that emanates from the Sun's upper atmosphere, the corona. This plasma flows outward through the solar system at high speeds, typically ranging from 300 to 800 kilometers per second. The existence of solar wind was first theorized in the 1950s and later confirmed by spacecraft observations.
The Sun's magnetic field plays a crucial role in shaping and guiding the solar wind. The constant
When the solar wind interacts with planetary magnetospheres, such as Earth's, it can cause spectacular phenomena
