Astronomers make 'best ever' images of a star other than Sun
Astronomers using the Chile-based Very Large Telescope array have produced "the most-detailed-yet images of the surface and atmosphere of a star beyond our Solar System." The red supergiant Antares is 550 light-years from Earth and is 15 times more massive than the Sun. The team used light from four telescopes to create high-resolution images equivalent to a single 200-metre telescope.
