Die Sonne - Der unbekannte Stern vor unserer Haustür

In the organizer's words:

It happened in the night from May 10 to 11, 2024: After a violent solar storm, auroras billow in the sky over Cologne! Our sun, which is so much more than just a reliable source of renewable energy, was responsible for this. The closest star to us not only offers a different picture every day when observing its turbulent surface and atmosphere. The sun also tells us a lot about the lives of the other stars that populate our Milky Way billions of times over. (An event for the whole family, including children aged 10 and over).
