As much as I love traveling around Earth, space is still the ultimate frontier.

The ESA made a remarkable step in studying solar phenomena and space weather, and achieved the first view of the pole in the history of humanity. It is a significant step towards better understanding the sun and its impact on us, from the auroras to satellite management and potential disruptions such as the Carrington Event.
