Hinode's High-resolution view of solar granulation
This zoom-in from a full view of the Hinode Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) (the same as in animation 3411) shows details of solar granulation and how rapidly it changes.

This movie starts with a full view of the Hinode SOT field and zooms in to show details of the solar granulation and how it changes with time.    This movie starts with a full view of the Hinode SOT field and zooms in to show details of the solar granulation and how it changes with time.
