Part of the Sun has moved away from the surface and started circulating around the top of the star as if it were a large polar vortex, and it's not exactly clear why it happened.

The observation was made possible thanks to the James Webb Space Telescope, and has sparked scientists' curiosity.

Tamitha Skov, a space weather physicist who regularly shares updates on social media, seemed overly excited about the latest developments.

"Talk about the Polar Vortex! "Material from a northern area just broke away from the main filament and is now circulating in a massive polar vortex around the north pole of our star," she wrote.

"The implications for understanding the atmospheric dynamics of the Sun above 55° here cannot be overstated!" she says.

Solar flares consist of hydrogen and helium, and explode by releasing plasma.

While there is confusion about the cause of the phenomenon, it may be related to the return of the sun's magnetic field, as well as the fact that something expected has been known to happen when the sun reaches a latitude of 55 degrees in every 11-year solar cycle.

Solar physicist Scott McIntosh, who is deputy director at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado said of Space.com: "Once in every solar cycle, this forms at 55 degree latitudes and starts marching up to the solar poles.

"It's very interesting. There's a big 'why' question around it. Why does it move to the pole once and then disappear and then return, magically, three or four years later to the same region?"
