This is the highest-resolution image ever taken of the sun from Earth. It was captured by the world’s most powerful solar telescope, the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Hawaii, which can image a region of the sun 38,000 km (23,600 mi) wide. The image was released in January [2020], and shows ‘cells’ of plasma rising from inside the star. The dark borders indicate where plasma is cooling and sinking.
