Synopsis

The sun is the nearest star; but how much is known about it? Less may be known than was thought a few decades ago; there are problems of the sunspots, the strange particles called neutrinos, and the recently discovered oscillations or quivering of the whole solar globe. Patrick Moore and lain Nicholson discuss these problems, and show photographs of last month's total solar eclipse.
