The sun has been photographed and imaged many times, but never from the top or bottom.

The Solar Orbiter, a collaborative mission between the European Space Agency and NASA, captured detailed images of the sun’s southern region in March, something no other probe has done at close range.

The satellites fly 492 feet (150 meters) apart. One satellite blocks the sun, mimicking the moon's role in a natural solar ...
