yes! The camera was attached to a $5000 telescope, I think that qualifies as a "zoom lense"

@jojo, the iss is 250 miles from the earth, the Sun is 93 million miles from the earth. I don't think they are close enough to burn

@quickshare, now THAT's a camera body

I think \"Esatonian Astronomers\" max_wedge and Eastcoaststar have answered you question!

The sun is so hot that anything that goes with even a million miles of it will get fried to a crisp....including the shuttle and space station!

The sun is one planet humans will never be a able to get close enough to...EVER!!

ultra strong magnetic fields could provide shielding but the technology doesn't exist yet to build them strong enough.
