A deep yet accessible tour of the Sun's 11-year rhythm—sunspots, magnetic storms, and solar flares—and how these cycles ripple through space weather, technology, and Earth's climate. We'll trace the history of how we discovered the cycle, explain the butterfly diagram, the Maunder Minimum, and long-term patterns like the Gleissberg cycle and Waldmeier/odd-even trends, and discuss why predicting solar activity matters for power grids and satellites.
