Parker Solar Probe observed switchbacks — traveling disturbances in the solar wind that caused the magnetic field to bend back on itself.Illustration of Parker Solar Probe flying through a switchback in the solar wind.
Magnetic switchbacks are sudden reversals in the magnetic field of the solar wind.[1] They can also be described as traveling disturbances in the solar wind that caused the magnetic field to bend back on itself. They were first observed by the NASA-ESA mission Ulysses, the first spacecraft to fly over the Sun's poles.[2][3] NASA's Parker Solar Probe and NASA/ESA Solar Orbiter both observed switchbacks.
