On Sunday, May 25, astronomers' telescopes recorded a mysterious energy object near the Sun, resembling a bird with outstretched wings in its outlines. Scientists from the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences tried to explain this phenomenon.
In their opinion, it may be a real object that is only projected onto the Sun, but is located not near the device, but at some distance - from several tens to several hundred kilometers.
With this interpretation, most likely, the destruction of the object is observed in the picture, and this forms the tail. The final stage occurs with a bright flash, leading to over saturation of the detector - the wings of the bird. But what kind of object it is, it is not so easy to understand right away, since the process develops in outer space, where there seem to be no direct reasons for destruction.
From more exotic, but quite scientific versions, astronomers suggested that some exotic energetic particle could enter the detector, capable of causing avalanche processes of the birth of secondary particles.
With this explanation, the tail may be formed by an avalanche of secondary particles, and the "bird" is formed as a result of the highlighting of the main energy of the particle, which occurs at the end of the track. But, in general, some kind of holistic explanation has not yet been formed, which, however, is common in observational astronomy. We ourselves sometimes observed effects on our instruments, for which we never found explanations. Currently, observational astronomy confidently classifies 99.9% of the objects that LASCO sees, but 0.1 or even 0.01% remain unexplained. The bird, most likely, will remain in this group.
