if you were to travel the sun in a protective ship, what would happen on the photosphere?

Question

its a science question i have to answer for homework

Answer 1

C'mon folks, this is an imaginary spaceship with the ability to enter the sun as a given! It could use a force field to hold back the plasma of the Sun, and photon-cancellation technology to keep the light down to managable levels.

Given all that though, I think the only thing that would happen on the photosphere is that it would get REALLY REALLY bright all around you, but then I'm not taking into account all of that quantum stuff when in space as curved by gravity as it would be inside the surface of the sun. I remember reading that photons take years to make it from the core of the sun to the photosphere - how bizarre!

Answer 2

The same thing that always happens in the Photosphere, your ship would be of no consequense. The Sun, Like the Earth, has layers. The photosphere is the outermost layer. Look up what happens there.

Answer 3

for one thing u wouldnt make it because the earth is soooooooooo hot that if u touched it with 1 finger u would die from the heat of explode first. The sun can melt anything so nothing is protective unless scientist can find out something that cant be melted. what would happen to the photosphere? nothing much since (saying this as nicely as possible) u would live to see it. sry if im being harsh but im being truthful

Answer 4

The photosphere is the part of the sun that is visible to us. This is where sun spots form and can be seen. It is approximately 100 KM thick and is gaseous in nature.

Answer 5

What's the photosphere?
(ignore the first person, BTW)

Answer 6

Hi. You would see a very bright yellowish or white sky when you look up.

Answer 7

its going to be a bright and bumpy trip
