First images from Inouye Solar Telescope
Scientists have released the first images of the Sun taken by the new Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope on the island of Maui in Hawaii.
The image to the right, cropped to post here, is today’s released image, a close-up of the Sun’s surface granular structure, with each cell about the size of Texas.
Right now most of the telescope’s instruments are not yet on line. It is expected the telescope will become fully operational in July.
