These two pictures show a patch of the Sun more magnetic than anything measure on our nearest star before. The top picture is a normal photograph of the Sun, the bottom shows the Sun’s magnetic field. The colour tells us how strong the magnetic field is: blue parts are weak magnets and red parts are strong magnets.
