Last night I saw a very entertaining documentary about the Sun on channel 4. I really liked it because it spoke of the origin of this star and solar activity in the universe. In addition, the documentary showed the solar eclipse that happened on June 10. I saw it in Spain and it was wonderful. The existence of the Sun is very interesting for many scientists and that is why they spend many years studying this star.

Clever stuff happening!
