Smiling Sun Graces the Cosmos in This Stunning Image

The Sun appears to smile in hilarious cosmic pictures.

A science spaceship captured the quirky grin earlier this month – and what looked like two eyes.

The star’s activity was observed by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) on 6 June.

The vast dark spot forming a mouth-like shape is actually a coronal hole that could be as wide as 800,000 km

These regions are where the Sun’s magnetic field lines open out into space, allowing solar wind to escape more easily.
