I guess this is going to be old news to a lot of the astronomy crowd but I just stumbled over this picture for the first time (via Cosmic Variance)
It is our sun. However, there is something special about this photograph.
It was taken at night. By looking directly through the earth. Using neutrinos (courtesy of Super-Kamiokande).
How awesome is that?
Can anybody take a guess at why there is a massive horizontal band across the picture?
