The European Space Agency's (ESA) Solar Orbiter probe has pinpointed the source of electrons expelled by the Sun.
The mission was able to split the flood of particles flung into space by the Sun into two groups, one connected to intense solar flares and the other to Coronal Mass Ejections.
The findings are significant for understanding space weather.
