Our Sun Sol: 2014 (2014x2)

This is what our star - Sol - has been up to in 2014. All videos are taken at different wavelengths (hence why the Sun is different colours than what you'd typically expect) to best show what's going on. For a detailed description of each of these videos, please click the links below.
