The
Hinode (Japanese for
sunrise) spacecraft (previously Solar-B) has snapped the first test images of it's three year mission to study the sun. In honor of this event
Top Men of course bring you the most interesting of these first images, but also a unique video that zooms down into a sunspot. The movie is not from
Hinode data, but what the heck - it's amazing.
