The Sun shows up in music and dance. How do songs about the Sun compare to the sunspot cycle? Are there more of them when there are more sunspots? This webinar offers further exploration of the Sun's influence on human artistic expression, particularly the ways it inspires humans to make and enjoy music.

This webinar is presented by NASA HEAT and delivered by Dr. Sten Odenwald. Below you will find both the original PowerPoint slide deck assembled by Dr. Odenwald and a PDF version of those slides.
