I have been helping scientists find jets of hot gas on the sun. These jets are "small and narrow ejections of solar material."
I don't have any special training, I'm just a citizen scientist. Anyone can help. You can too.
The project is here: https://www.zooniverse.org/projects/sophiemu/solar-jet-hunter/about/research
Astronomers and others think that jets may uncover new mysteries about our star.
The designers of the study say: "...solar jets could be linked to energetic particles and perturbations in the solar wind." They're just not sure about jets yet.
Also, there are piles of fantastic new data coming from the Parker Solar Probe. Understanding solar jets may help us understand this new data (or spawn even more questions).
