The Solar UV Network (SUN) presently proposed is an interferometric system, based on the principles of stabilized interferometry, which will be capable of solar observations with spatial resolutions better than 0.013 arcsec. SUN will consist of four 20-cm diameter telescopes aligned nonredundantly on a 2-m baseline. SUN is judged to be ideally deployable by the NASA Space Station, if implemented on a pointing platform whose performance is of the order of the Instrument Pointing System flown on Spacelab 2. The compact, nonredundant configuration of SUN's telescopes will allow high-resolution imaging of a 2 x 2 arcsec field on the solar disk.
