Description

Did you know that our sun undergoes an 11-year cycle and is at the maximum of its activity this year? Juli thought that was the perfect time to talk to an expert and discuss everything we know and would like to know about our Sun! So for this podcast she had a conversation with Sowmya Krishnamurthy from the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Göttingen. They talk about what causes the solar cycle, how the Sun compares to other stars in the Galaxy and how we can study the sun. They also discuss the Sun’s influence on Earth, how Aurorae are formed and the effects of space weather. Enjoy this episode!
