The Russian sun observatory of TESIS took picture “fire” in the Sunshine. About ten protuberances extended from the surface of star in a corona on a height more than 100 thousand kilometres during three days. Description of the unusual phenomenon is resulted in a report on the site of project TESIS. "Fire" it was registered on the east limb (visible edge) of a Sun. Protuberances were observed in a period, when a star was in the minimum phase of activity. Considered until now,
that it is the phenomenon anymore characteristically for the periods of increase of activity of a Sun. Protuberances consist of relatively nenagretogo matter, descended from the dense cold layers of sun atmosphere. In order that to heave up the arrays of matter on the height of order
hundreds of thousands of kilometres, a Sun needs "to expend" much energy. Therefore protuberances are considerably more frequent observed in periods of increase of activity of a Sun.Presently our star is in one of the longest in all history of supervisions
period of a minimum of activity. Thus on a background unusual there are repetitive extrass of plasma low activity. While astronomers can not explain reason of such unusual conduct of a Sun.At the beginning of May there are the American vehicles STEREO fixed in the Sunshine
"torches", which can testify to beginning of new cycle of sun activity. However synonymous statements scientists do not do, reports Lenta.ru. Taken picture TESIS protuberances on the east limb of a Sun
