Huge bright arches or loops of gas that originate in the chromosphere are known as solar prominences. These structures are composed of plasma and are often associated with magnetic activity on the Sun's surface. They can extend thousands of kilometers into the solar atmosphere and may last for days or even weeks before dissipating or erupting. Solar prominences are important for understanding solar dynamics and their impact on space weather.


Where did pointed arches in architecture originate?

They orientated from Gothic Architecture and Design. Pointed arches were used in Gothic architecture to help support the weight of vaulted ceilings. Rounded arches previously used could not support the increased height, width and weight of new building designs. The concept of the pointed arch operates in a similar manner as two leaning objects. Two sides of a pointed arch lean against each other for support and the increased force and loads placed on the arches from the ceiling is displaced onto the flying buttresses, which are supported by the ground. The increased roof support provided by the pointed arches allowed building walls to be thinner. Decorative details seen on arches were a natural consequence of Gothic design.
