NASA. LARGE FORMAT. Solar observation. The Sun in faux relief (3D). 2007. A fascinating image in which science creates a true artistic illusion. Created from two photographs taken 10:30 apart by the SOHO spacecraft, this composite gives the Sun a striking sense of depth. The rotation of our star reveals the subtleties of its atmosphere with remarkable precision, while a massive coronal hole enhances the image’s sense of depth. Both elegant and spectacular, this photograph ranks among the most original depictions of the Sun ever obtained and captivates viewers as much with its visual beauty as with its scientific ingenuity. Vintage chromogenic print. Numbered on the front. Caption on a label on the back. 40.6 x 40.6 cm with margins.
