CONTACT:Mary Fortune
DESCRIPTION:The Sun should be at the peak of its activity cycle\, but actu
 ally it has been rather feeble. Several solar space observatories have bee
 n watching the Sun over the past few years: SoHO\, Stereo\, Hinode\, SDO a
 nd IRIS. We now have high spatial and spectral resolution images of the Su
 n\, with a high cadence. This talk will review what we have learnt about t
 he active Sun\, in particular what we know (and don't yet know!) about sol
 ar active regions and flares\, and how they might affect the Earth's envir
 onment (via space weather).
