Solar Orbiter Unveils Stunning High-Resolution Sun Images

The ESA's Solar Orbiter has captured an incredibly high-resolution image of the Sun by stitching together 25 images taken from 74 million km away. This mosaic, with a resolution of 175 km per pixel, reveals detailed features like granules and sunspots on the solar photosphere. The Solar Orbiter, launched in 2020, is designed to study the Sun's poles, magnetic fields, and solar wind, and its instruments like the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager and Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager are key to these observations.
