The sun likes to remind us that Earth is merely one part of a joint system. Despite our connection with the sun, there are still numerous scientific mysteries to uncover about this critical star, particularly its magnetic field (磁场). Now, for the first time, scientists have taken nearly daily measurements of the sun’s coronal (日冕的) magnetic field and this observation offers a more dynamic view of this solar region.
The solar magnetic field is the primary driver of solar storms and flares. As society grows increasingly reliant on technology, this space weather generates threats to power networks, communication systems, and in-space technologies like GPS and satellites. “Global mapping of the coronal magnetic field has been a big missing part in the study of the sun,” said Zihao Yang, a postdoctoral fellow from Peking University in China. “This research is helping us fill a crucial gap in our understanding of coronal magnetic fields, which are the source of the energy for storms that can impact Earth.”
Scientists have been able to routinely measure the magnetic field on the sun’s surface. Large telescopes like the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST), which is the world’s largest solar telescope, can measure the three-dimensional coronal magnetic fields in depth. It recently demonstrated its ability to make detailed observations of the coronal magnetic field. However, DKIST can’t map the sun all at once.
To try to get more overall mapping, the team turned to the Upgraded Coronal Multi-channel Polarimeter (UCoMP). UCoMP can block out parts of the sun. It uses a dise called a coronagraph to enable scientists to measure the sun’s atmosphere. UCoMP has a much smaller aperture (光图) compared to DKIST, but it can take a wider view, which makes it possible for scientists to study the entire sun on most days.
“We are entering a new age of solar physics research when we can routinely measure the coronal magnetic field,” said Yang. Using DKIST’s and UCoMP’s measurements together offers a more all-sided view of the coronal magnetic field.
1. What is the significance of the new observation of the sun’s coronal magnetic field?
A. It reveals the source of the sun’s energy.
B It helps us fully understand the solar system.
C. It enables us to predict solar storms accurately.
D. It allows further insight into a certain solar region.
2. What does Zihao Yang think of the research?
A. It’s well-received. B. It’s risk-free. C. It’s pioneering. D. It’s misleading.
3. What is the main advantage of UCoMP compared to DKIST?
A. It provides a wider view of the sun.
B. It has a larger aperture for higher-quality images.
C. It can measure the sun’s magnetic field in greater depth.
D. It can block out the sun’s light for better measurements.
4. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The importance of solar physics research.
B. The comparison between DKIST and UCoMP.
C. The sun’s magnetic field and its impact on Earth.
D. The new progress in measuring the sun’s coronal magnetic field.

Booking your next vacation to space with out-of-this-world views could soon be a reality. Orbital Assembly Corporation announced two new station concepts designed with space tourism accommodations. One of the stations, called Pioneer, could orbit Earth as early as 2025.
The Gateway Foundation circulated ideas for a space hotel in 2019. The goal of the stations is to run a space business park that can serve as a home away from home with room for offices and tourists. Orbital Assembly was founded by the Gateway Foundation team as a way to help make these dreams come true.
The proposed Pioneer station can accommodate 28 people. The second station, Voyager, scheduled to open in 2027, can hold up to 400 people. “The goal has always been to make it possible for large numbers of people to live, work and thrive in space,“ says Orbital Assembly’s COO Tim Alatorre.
Both stations look like a wheel and will feature artificial gravity that allows guests to move comfortably on each station. Pioneer features five modules built around the rotating “Gravity Ring” architecture design. Tourists may still feel some weightlessness but will also be able to drink out of a cup and won’t have to be tied to a bed to sleep. The gravity works similar to how a spinning bucket pushes the water out to the sides of the bucket and stays in place, Alatorre explains. Near the middle of the station, there will be no artificial gravity, but gravity gradually increases further away from the center.
While the Pioneer station will be smaller than Voyager, guests can still shower, eat and drink sitting down in areas with gravity. Each station is furnished like luxury hotels on Earth. Voyager will feature a restaurant and suites with views of Earth.
A significant barrier to space travel is the cost. However, Orbital Assembly expects tourists to seek a trek into space as space travel eventually becomes less expensive. “We envision our Pioneer and Voyager space stations as the ultimate ecotourism destinations. Once people get to space, it will change their perspective about Earth,” Alatorre says. “Space travel is still at its early stage, and we’re excited to do our part to push it forward to help improve life on Earth.”
5. What is the goal of the Pioneer and Voyager space stations?
A. To revolutionize space travel.
B. To serve as luxury hotels in space.
C. To offer a unique and immersive experience.
D. To enable large scale living and working in space.
6. What do the Pioneer and Voyager stations have in common?
A. Open time. B. Artificial gravity.
C. Suites with views. D. Passenger capacity.
7. What can we learn from paragraph 4?
A. The “Gravity Ring” rotates around the station.
B. The gravity is weak in the central point of the station.
C. The “Gravity Ring” on Pioneer is identical with that on Voyager.
D. The gravity operates like a spinning bucket keeping water inside.
8. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Overcoming the Barrier: Space Tourism Becomes Affordable
B. Space Hotels on the Horizon: Pioneer and Voyager Stations
C. The Future of Space Travel: Pioneer and Voyager Stations
D. Orbital Assembly: Space Tourism Dream Comes True
