What if we could look at the Sun from a whole new angle, one we’ve never seen before? ☀️ For the first time, Solar Orbiter has captured close-up images of the Sun’s mysterious poles, regions long hidden from view. In 2025, Solar Orbiter gave us a first-ever look at the Sun’s south pole. Remarkably, it found both north and south magnetic fields tangled together. This is a sign that the Sun is at the peak of its 11-year activity cycle, when its magnetic poles flip. 📹 @europeanspaceagency 📸ESA&NA
