A Sunspot Up Close

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

A sunspot is a slightly darker, cooler depression on the Sun's surface. The Sun's complex magnetic field creates these regions by preventing hot material from entering them. Sunspots can be larger than Earth and typically last only a few days. This high-resolution image also reveals the Sun's surface as a bubbling expanse of individual cells.
