☀️🧲 Did you know that #SolarOrbiter can see vivid changes in the Sun as it goes through its 11-year magnetic activity cycle?
As we approach 'solar maximum' (expected 2025), we see more brilliant explosions, dark sunspots and swirls of super-hot gas 💥

@PmodWrc has put into operation the new series of IRIS radiometers this week - these serve as reference radiometers for the terrestrial radiation component of the Earth's surface radiation budget.
An honour to have a visit from @esa DG @AschbacherJosef, @esa astronaut @astro_matthias along with colleagues from @ETH_en including the president @Joel_Mesot. Discussions on future space projects and educating more scientists and engineers. Space is vital for all our futures.
