Using cutting-edge tools such as the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, astronomers can study the sun as never before.  We are joined by Maria Kazachenko, assistant professor in the University of Colorado Boulder Astrophysical & Planetary Sciences department and assistant professor at the National Solar Observatory, to hear about how why it's important to study the sun, why magnetic fields result in solar flares and how new tools are changing our understanding of the sun.
