The Japanese exploration satellite "Kuafu I" released this scientific picture for the first time.

Xinhua News Agency, Nanjing165438+1October 24th, learned from the Purple Mountain Observatory of China Academy of Sciences that China's comprehensive special satellite for solar exploration? Kuafu one? Recently, hard X-ray images of the sun have been obtained and published. Is this one too? Kuafu one? Scientific images were released for the first time after the launch.

It is reported that this is the only hard X-ray image of the sun taken from a near-earth perspective in the world, and the image quality has reached the international advanced level.

? Kuafu one? According to the chief scientist Gan Wei Qun, the image released this time is an image of an M-class solar flare that broke out in11(Universal Time), and was taken by the spaceborne hard X-ray imager (HXI). Although it is still in the testing period, the imaging effect is excellent, from which we can identify the details of the explosion and the fine structure of the sun.

? Kuafu one? The full name of the satellite is Advanced Space-based Solar Observatory (ASO-S), which is a comprehensive special satellite for solar exploration. It was successfully launched at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center on June 9, 2022. What is the goal of satellite science? A magnet and two storms? That is to observe the solar magnetic field and the two most violent explosive phenomena on the sun-flare and coronal mass ejection, and study their formation, evolution, interaction and correlation to provide support for space weather forecast. Hard X-ray imager is one of the three major payloads of satellite developed by Purple Mountain Observatory of China Academy of Sciences. A magnet and two storms? The task of observing the non-thermal radiation of solar flares.
