The following is a list of stars with resolved images, that is, stars whose images have been resolved beyond a point source. Aside from the Sun , observed from Earth , stars are exceedingly small in apparent size, requiring the use of special high-resolution equipment and techniques to image.
The resolution of 960H depends on whether the equipment is PAL or NTSC based: 960H represents 960 x 576 (PAL) or 960 x 480 (NTSC) pixels. [29] 960H represents an increase in pixels of some 30% over standard D1 resolution, which is 720 x 576 pixels (PAL), or 720 x 480 pixels (NTSC). The increased resolution over D1 comes as a result of a longer ...

Microsoft said they wanted not just to license the image for use as Windows XP's default wallpaper, but to buy all the rights to it. [10]: 3:37 [24] They offered O'Rear what he says is the second-largest payment ever made to a photographer for a single image; however, he signed a confidentiality agreement and cannot disclose the exact amount.
Hubble's high resolution view of the star-forming region of Tarantula Nebula and the R136 super star cluster at its center The Tarantula Nebula has an apparent magnitude of 8. Considering its distance of about 49 kpc [ 2 ] (160,000 light-years ), this is an extremely luminous non-stellar object.
