New 8K-resolution photos of the sun show off incredible details of raging sunspots

  • New high-resolution 8K images of the sun's surface captured by a camera system developed by Leibniz Institute reveal detailed sunspots and solar activity.
  • The camera system installed on the Vacuum Tower Telescope in Tenerife provides both wide field of view and high resolution, enabling comprehensive studies of active solar regions.
  • Advanced image restoration techniques compile 100 short-exposure images to create reconstructed images with 8K resolution, offering a spatial resolution of approximately 62 miles on the sun's surface.
  • The precision of these images allows for observation of dynamic solar processes on short timescales and provides insights into sunspot groups, plasma flows, and magnetic field structures for improved space weather forecasting.
