With near-real-time data from NASA\u2019s Solar Dynamics Observatory and ESA\u2019s (the European Space Agency) and NASA&#8217;s Solar Orbiter, they created a dynamic model of the corona. The team\u2019s model accurately predicted several details, including long streamers in the upper and lower left side of the image, but the streamers\u2019 locations are slightly misaligned when compared with real images. This is likely because some new activity on the far side of the Sun, which affected the appearance of the corona, wasn\u2019t yet seen and couldn\u2019t be incorporated in the model. Once it was, the model more closely matched observational photos of the corona.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/image-article\/2024-total-solar-eclipse-prediction-vs-reality\/?rand=772114\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The researchers used the Aitken, Electra, and Pleiades supercomputers at the NASA Advanced Supercomputing facility, located at the agency\u2019s Ames Research Center in California\u2019s Silicon Valley.
