*Solar Energies*


Q:  Regarding our sun, in recent developments that measured the
photosphere, the surface of the sun, at 5,600 degrees centigrade...

B:  Degrees Kelvin.

Q:  Degrees Kelvin?

B:  Yes.

Q:  And the corona is one million degrees.

B:  Yes.

Q:  We are not aware why the corona has a higher temperature than the
photosphere?

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 higher energy. Thus, it is not so
much of a rarified plasma interaction, wherein the molecular motion cannot
be as high as it is in the free-form state of what you would call the
gaseous corona.

Q: Thank you.

B:  Thank you.
