Heliospheric current sheet, the largest structure in the Solar System, resulting from the influence of the Sun's rotating magnetic field on the plasma in the interplanetary medium (Solar Wind). The wavy spiral shape has been likened to a ballerina's skirt.
Edit

The beautiful ballerina's skirt of the Heliospheric current sheet, is the largest structure in the Solar System. Not many people know that!
