> The sun has been the inspiration for hundreds of songs, but now
> scientists have discovered that the star at the centre of our solar
> system produces its own music.
> 
> Astronomers at the University of Sheffield have managed to record for
> the first time the eerie musical harmonies produced by the magnetic
> field in the outer atmosphere of the sun.
> 
> They found that huge magnetic loops that have been observed coiling away
> from the outer layer of the sun's atmosphere, known as coronal loops,
> vibrate like strings on a musical instrument.
