The first indication that the sun might be emitting a "wind" came from comet tails , observed to point away from the Sun, whether the comet was approaching the Sun or whether it was moving away. ... Comet Halley, with plasma tail kink . ... Sunlight pressure cannot explain such behavior, but in 1943 Cuno Hoffmeister in Germany, and later Ludwig Biermann, proposed that apart from sunlight, the Sun also emitted a steady stream of particles, a "solar corpuscular radiation" which pushed the ions. ...
