A Complete Solar Cycle from SOHO
This image from the SOHO spacecraft shows a complete solar cycle, spanning eleven years. The Sun's magnetic field drives this cycle, moving from solar maximum, with frequent sunspots and flares, to solar minimum, with less activity. SOHO has observed multiple cycles, providing a long-term view of our star's behavior.
