The importance of high spatial resolution in the future of astrophysics, and in the revolutionization of solar physics, is addressed. The proximity of the Sun brings the enormous advantage that modest baselines suffice to fulfill an important goal: to resolve basic plasma processes at their characteristic scales. At such resolution, the solar atmosphere represents a plasma physics laboratory of broad interest. Concerted observations combining high spatial and temporal resolution with narrow band diagnostics in the ultraviolet and the visible will deliver detailed insights in plasma processes that are ubiquitous in the cosmos, but resolvable only for the Sun. Space interferometry is the obvious way to fulfill this promise and reasons for this are given. The space time resolution characteristics of solar phenomena and solar inspired paradigms of magnetohydrodynamics are considered together with the ground based resolution limit.
