This is what the Sun looks like today from the Solar Dynamics Observatory. The image in the upper left is from the 4500Å filter showing the photosphere of the Sun. That is the light-emitting surface, what we see with our eyes. There are some sun spots rotating toward the horizon near the western limb. The other three images are composites made from combinations of data gathered by various EUV filters on the SDO satellite.
