This undated handout photograph taken and released by the US National Science Foundation Solar Observatory on August 5, 2026, shows the highest-resolution image of the Sun's surface (photosphere) ever captured, taken at 416 nm by the Inouye Solar Telescope. It reveals deformed boundaries of magnetic elements and ultra-fine scale stripes, both associated with Kelvin-Helmholtz instability.
