- Scientists have reported observations of a flareless coronal mass ejection (CME) from the solar atmosphere.
- This was observed with the help of Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC) instrument onboard Aditya-L1 mission.
- Flares and CMEs are explosive events in the Sun.
- They are due to the magnetic reconnection during which magnetic field lines rearrange.
- During a flare, energy is released primarily as electromagnetic radiation from the heated plasma.
- Compared to flares, the CMEs are massive eruptions of the plasma and magnetic field weighing about the trillion kilograms at speeds up to 3,000 kilometres per second.
