Searching for large sun image

[vokuhila]

Hello,

I'd like to print out an image of our star and put it to the wall.
Something like this:
http://z.about.com/d/space/1/0/s/6/1/PIA03149.jpg

Problem is...I need this at a much higher resolution. I want it printed at least at the size of 1m x 1m.
But I cannot find an image above 2000x2000 px.

Does anyone know where I could get that? I'd also pay for it, if there is no free option.


Thanks.

This one (3104x2058) is too blurry to use, but I like it anyway for the plane transiting the sun:

This one (2850x2850) is more detailed, maybe not enough for you, but I like it anyway for the ISS and shuttle transiting the sun:

Thank you for all the links

I found a 2400x2300 tiff image on the SOHO page. That would be more than 2 Pixel per mm. I think I'll give that one a try.

In my neighborhood we call it a mullet.

Haha. Yes, it's a german fun word for mullet. I don't have one.
But I've seen young people running arround like that lately.
