Astronomers have the best-ever photos of the Sun. A team of researchers a solar telescope at the U.S. National Science Foundation in Hawaii. The researchers very detailed images of the Sun's surface. The pictures amazing new details about what is on the solar surface. In particular, the scientists out hundreds of spiralling areas of activity, which like twisters of fire. These might a lot about the Sun's energy and how solar flares are . Astronomer Dr David Boboltz was excited about the photos. He called the Sun a "unique laboratory". He said: "It's our closest star, and it can help us some very basic laws of physics."

The new high-resolution images are the closest ever that scientists have in on the Sun. The photographs a 5,000-km-wide area of our closest star. Scientists are particularly interested in photos that show what at the borders between the dark and bright regions of the Sun. This is where huge spirals of fire created. It happens when two fluids move at different speeds and , causing a build-up of energy. A similar thing on Earth, but with ocean water, not fire. You can this in ocean waves. Dr Boboltz said: "Once there's enough energy, it can then released as a solar flare." He said the photos could help us to " out and eventually space weather".
