Bashar: Channeled by Darryl Anka Circa 1996 "Photosphere of the Sun" Questioner: The last area that I would like to ask you about is our Sun. In a resent development that measures the photosphere, the surface of the Sun is 5,600' centigrade... B: Degrees Kelvin. Q: Degrees Kelvin? B: Yes. Q: And then the corona is 1,000,000 degrees... B: Yes. Q: ...we are not exactly sure why the corona would be that much of a higher temperature that the surface? B: Because it is a different form of free form plasma energy with a much higher energy content because of how it is more capable of interacting with all sorts of different kinds of cosmic radiation, whereas the surface material of the Sun is more compacted and not so capable of freely interacting with other higher levels of cosmic energy. Thus it is not so much of a rarefied plasma interaction, wherein the molecular motion can not be as high as it is in the free form state of what you would call the gaseous corona. Q: Thank you very much. B: Thank you. http://www.bashartapes.com
