Bright Points on the Quiet Sun
Up close, the solar surface is a striking patchwork of granules in this high-resolution picture of the quiet Sun.

The high-resolution view reveals that the dark lanes are dotted with many small, contrasting bright points. These bright points are constantly present on the solar surface.
