Series of conferences at the CosmoCaixa about the Sun — Poster for the exhibition "The Sun. Living with our star"

During four successive Thursdays, from September 22 to October 13, specialists in different scientific disciplines will explain, in a fun and participatory way, how the Sun was born and its evolution in the universe, its characteristics as a star. Jordi Gutiérrez, professor in the Physics department at EETAC, is in charge of giving the first lecture, on Thursday 22 September at 7pm. It's called the “King Star” and it will tell us what we know and what we don't know (yet) about the Sun from an astrophysical point of view.
