Giant Telescope Confirms Sun Is Still Really Hot

A monumental achievement in astrophysics has reportedly confirmed what anyone with a basic understanding of our celestial neighborhood has long suspected: the sun, that enormous fiery orb in the sky, remains quite warm. The Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, a marvel of engineering often described as "quite large," has captured unprecedented images of a solar flare, revealing intricate details that previously went un-observed, mostly because everyone was busy not staring directly into the sun.

Scientists involved in the project, which undoubtedly consumed a significant portion of the global scientific budget, expressed profound excitement at the clarity. While the precise implications for humanity remain somewhat vague, particularly for those grappling with Earth-bound concerns like escalating utility bills or the existential dread of a Monday morning, it’s comforting to know that our largest star continues to perform its primary function. Perhaps next, they’ll confirm water is still wet, or that NASA still enjoys launching rockets.
