Zoom Into the Sun

A view of the full Sun in ultraviolet light, as captured by the Solar Orbiter.

Fall into our nearest star in this gorgeous high-resolution view of the Sun. Taken by Solar Orbiter, a joint NASA-ESA mission, the image stretches from the fiery photosphere — full of filaments and prominences — to the wispy yet unbelievably hot corona. It’s well worth clicking through to zoom in and around the full size image. (Image credit: ESA & NASA/Solar Orbiter/EUI Team, E. Kraaikamp; via Gizmodo)
