Our Sun has revealed another surprise. Researchers using the world's largest solar telescope, the DKIST (Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Maui, Hawai’i), have observed extraordinarily tiny plasma vortices on the solar surface exposing a deeper, detailed level of organization. A paper published this August in Nature, "Ubiquitous Kelvin–Helmholtz instabilities driving plasma mixing on the Sun", describes a solar photosphere—far more complex and dynamic than previously observed. Forty-seven vortices were analyzed, with sizes ranging from around 25 to 170 kilometers. What once was thought as relatively smooth boundaries between magnetic regions and the surrounding plasma is now seen as a restless landscape of swirling plasmatic vortices and striations. In the scientific discipline of Plasma Cosmology, discoveries such as these tiny vortices are not an inconvenience. They are exactly the sort of complexity expected from an electrically active star. Also, these discoveries strengthen the veracity of Donald E. Scott's Electric Sun Model that views conventional solar physics as another manifestation of the electrical plasma system in our interconnected cosmos. Author and independent researcher David Drew doesn't think the Sun suddenly became more complicated—rather, it's the advancement of our observational instruments that reveal what's always been there.
