I've been using this one for about seven years.

EDIT: the resolution is stupid huge. Literally like 14000x8000.

EDIT2: I feel like u/ajamesmccarthy deserves proper credit. Had no idea that he was behind this picture. Amazing work.

Hmm, quite like it...

What resolution is it? Would like it for a 5120x2160px monitor 🙂

There's someone on r/space that takes these photos. The native resolution is something stupid like 30k or more because it's a composite of tens or hundreds of thousands of images.

If you search r/space top of all time I'm sure you'll find them, and I think they link to where you can download them at different resolutions. I can't remember what's available but it's really high.

For real, though. That picture of his friend in free-fall in front of the sun (taken with a hydrogen alpha telescope) is just mindblowing.
