The Screen Guide

Every 11 years the Sun's poles reverse with unimaginable violence. The peak of the storm is called a solarmax. The large format science documentary SOLARMAX tells the story of the human relationship with our nearest star - the Sun - from ancient times to contemporary space science. Real images captured by NASA's SOHO satellite provide a spectacular view of the Sun as it has never been seen before.
