A sky observer has revealed stunning close-up images of the sun with amazing detail.
The flaming sphere was photographed by a special solar telescope for an amazing five hours.
You can even let the gases flow out.
Photographer Andrew McCarthy Share the stunning video on social media.
“There’s a party on the sun, but you’re not invited,” the space lover joked.
But he warned others not to look at the sun themselves with a telescope.
“Don’t try this if you don’t know what you’re doing,” he wrote on Twitter.
“You would go blind or start a fire if you pointed a telescope at the sun.”
The video has been sped up from 1800x to 3600x to show how things are moving.
It’s even bigger, to give an idea of the size compared to Earth – of course, our planet is very small in comparison.
People on social media were stunned by the video.
One said: “I’m intrigued by this…it’s cool…”.
Another commented, “It’s truly amazing that you can achieve this level of detail in your own garden on your own budget.”
