Good question. Tineye doesnt even try to find a source because its "too generic" and google finds a bunch of similar but slightly different images.
It could have just been horizontally flipped too.
EDIT: actually google found this shitter post from yesterday: https://xcancel.com/JPMajor/status/2053945162301157821
The post title was: "A reminder of the actual size of the Sun in scale comparison to Earth." so im pretty sure thats where OP got it from.
The poster credited it to himself (bottom right). His account description reads "Space exploration aficionado and occasional NASA image processor."
Thank you... Indeed, another "fact", considering the OP/Community name...
These are the times... the times of the sad/sorrowful huge flow of irresponsible and disrespectful attitude towards actual authors, transparency, and truth in information...
