Those aren't photos you're looking at, just drawings. Or the picture may use a photograph of another galaxy as a proxy for ours (artistic license).

How does heat move through the radiative layer?

Heat travels through the radiative layer of the sun from the core outwards in the form of photons. These photos are so energetic in this confined space that they don't take a straight path outwards, they bounce around inside the sun for hundreds of thousands of years before they finally reach the surface of the sun after which they take only eight minutes to travel the nintey-three million miles to us.

Is the iss always visible from earth?

Not ALWAYS, but if you are within 100 miles or so of its flight path during the hour or so before sunrise and after sunset, it's pretty easy to see; it's bright, and moving fast! You won't be able to see it during the day, or when it is in the Earth's shadow. However, astronomers have often been able to photograph the ISS as it "transits" the Sun. Check the links below for some astounding photos of the ISS taken by amateur astronomers here on Earth. You can go to the website spaceweather.com and check the times within the next week that it will be visible from your location.
