Scientists have captured images of the sun’s surface in the finest detail yet, revealing a strange and dynamic facade. Researchers were able to peek at the sun's scorching surface with the help of the National Science Foundation’s Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, located on the island of Maui in Hawaii.

Here’s a series of videos I captured using my solar telescope- showing how chaotic the solar chromosphere is. Keep in mind the smallest details you see are still thousands of miles wide.

Despite fighting malfunctioning equipment, I captured one of my most surreal videos ever. That’s the moon crossing in front of the sun. You can see mountains on the lunar limb as it transits the chromosphere. Captured using a specially modified telescope from Utah in 2023.

General Dan Caine, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: The strikes that Iran has taken on shipping up north, in the vicinity of Kuwait, have been, I believe, from surface-to-surface missiles up there. We've not seen any USV activity out of Iran that we've seen in the Gulf at this point.

Most people believe that exposure to sunlight increases their risk of cancer. This is simply NOT true! We’ve been taught to fear the sun, and as a result, adults and kids are soaking themselves in a bath of toxic, hormone-disrupting chemicals. Science has long ago revealed that exactly what we put on our skin winds up in our bodies, and rapidly. What causes cancer is the ingredients of the sunscreens that we have been advised to use to "protect" us from the sun rays. The sun actually protects you against skin cancer in most cases, especially considering the powerful role of vitamin D in the body.
