United States Space Agency (NASA) released two videos in order to celebrate 5 years of the Solar Dynamics Observatory or Agency NASA Solar Observatory (SDO) airs in space.
Visible surface of the Sun seemed to 'crack' in some parts. Sightings 'crack' it is estimated along 533 thousand miles or about 857,780.352 km.
However, as quoted from Metro.co.uk, Friday (13/02/2015), according to NASA spokesman, 'crack' it's not crack real black and really not immortal.
Explained Space Agency Uncle Sam's, 'cracks' black is called 'filaments Sun' which usually appears in some time. Filaments that move erupted into space as a 'coronal mass ejection' and sometimes back again to the surface of the Sun like rain.
But the phenomenon did not last long. Within a few days later, the appearance of 'cracks' will disappear.
'Cracks' black is an area of cooler material that floated on the surface of the sun. While red sightings around the hot material.
"SDO captures images of filaments in a wide range of wavelengths, each of which helps show the different temperatures of the material sun," said the spokesman for NASA.
It is unknown why this phenomenon can occur. Since its launch on February 11, 2010 using the rockets 'ULA Atlas V' from Station Cape Canaveral, Florida, scientists began investigating the causes and processes of 'cracks' or structures that could happen.
"Scientists also mid explore how to characterize the inside, magnetic field, heat the corona, and how full of radiation that creates the ionosphere or the atmosphere ionized by solar radiation, as well as the impact on the Earth."
Added that, this study was conducted to estimate the heat of the Sun in order to protect aircraft, satellites, and astronauts working and living in space.
