These tiny swirls on the #sun could trigger #solarflares
A huge #telescope observed swirls for first time on sun’s surface
Swirls are #solar #magnetic elements, regions of highly magnetized plasma on sun’s surface. There are millions of them, and energy from their magnetized plasma can be transferred, stabilized and transformed by swirling motions — phenomenon called Kelvin-Helmholtz instability
Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope captured the images

Firings at US #weather and #oceans agency risk lives and economy, former agency heads warn
By SETH BORENSTEIN
Updated 9:48 AM EST, March 1, 2025WASHINGTON (AP) — "The federal weather and oceans agency touches people’s daily lives in unnoticed ways, so massive firings there will likely cause needless deaths and a big hit to America’s economy, according to the people who ran it.
"The first round of firings started Thursday at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, a government agency that monitors the oceans, the atmosphere where storms roam and space, and puts out hundreds of 'products' daily. Those products generally save lives and money, experts say.
"#NOAA’s 301 billion weather forecasts every year reach 96% of American households.
The firings are 'going to affect safety of flight, safety of shipping, safety of everyday Americans,' Admiral Tim Gallaudet told The Associated Press Friday. President Donald Trump appointed Gallaudet as acting NOAA chief during his last administration. 'Lives are at risk for sure.'
"Former NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad agreed.
"'We’re getting into prime #tornado time. We’re getting into #planting season for the agricultural season for the bread belt,' Spinrad said. 'It’s going to affect safety. It’s going to affect the economy.'"
