SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosphere-The photosphere is the deepest layer of the Sun that we can observe directly. It reaches from the surface visible at the center of the solar disk to about 250 miles (400 km) above that.

Detailed explanation-2: -The boundary between the Sun’s interior and the solar atmosphere is called the photosphere. It is what we see as the visible surface of the Sun. The photosphere is not like the surface of a planet; even if you could tolerate the heat, you couldn’t stand on it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Around the core lie two layers: a thick layer called the radiative zone and a thinner, cooler layer called the convective zone. Surrounding all of them is the sun’s surface layer, known as the photosphere. Above this lies the sun’s thin atmosphere, which is made up of the chromosphere and the corona.

Detailed explanation-4: -The photosphere is the lowest layer of the sun’s atmosphere-the innermost layer we can observe directly. The term photosphere means “sphere of light” and is the layer where most of the sun’s energy is emitted. It takes about eight minutes for sunlight from the photosphere to reach Earth.

Detailed explanation-5: -The photosphere is much brighter than the outer parts of the Sun’s atmosphere (the chromosphere and the corona), so regular photos of the Sun do not show the outer atmosphere.
