  • Astronomers found small and short-lived loops in the Sun’s lower atmosphere.
  • These may reveal how the Sun stores and unleashes magnetic energy.
  • These miniature coronal loops are only 3,000–4,000 km long and <100 km wide.
  • They were previously undetectable due to their size and the brief lifespan (lasting just a few minutes).
