To the ancients the Sun was a God - a life giver. Millenia later, alongside astronauts on board Skylab, we witness it's terrible beauty close up. The Space Age has given us a new perspective on our parent star revealing the many unseed faces of the Sun - the powerhouse that drives the Solar System. Plunge into it's nuclear heart with the SOHO mission and watch as huge flares rush out at ten million kilometres and hour to engulf even the most distant planets.
