Constant observation of solar factors, which have the greatest influence on life on Earth, helps to obtain new information about the properties of the Sun https://orbitaltoday.com/2023/05/25/how-hot-is-the-sun-exactly/ Despite the potentially strong influence of solar energy on our planet, scientists do not record such complications that could not have been avoided.

Loving this so far. Hoping that the voice actors attached mean that this podcast will have a proper ending and won't just start strong and then just stop after 3 or 4 eps.
