The characteristics of the movement of the solar system through space are examined and the possibility is considered that in their circulation around the Galaxy center the stars and clouds move through the spiral arms of the Galaxy. In such an event, the solar system would pass through interstellar clouds and the sun's luminosity would temporarily increase due to an accretion process involving the interstellar material. An increase in solar radiation, by enhancing the rate of precipitation, could initiate a glaciation on earth. Possible relations between the appearance of comets and the density of the interstellar material encountered by the sun in its journey through space are also discussed.
