Kodaikanal solar observatory

—> Astronomers have reconstructed the Sun’s past polar magnetic fields using century-old images from the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory (KoSO), offering deeper insight into future solar activity.

✅ Solar magnetic behaviour affects sunspots, flares, and geomagnetic storms.
✅ Understanding polar fields helps predict solar storms, which can damage satellites, GPS, communication networks, and power grids.
✅ KoSO’s dataset—now digitised—is a powerful global resource for AI/ML applications in solar science.
