Measurements of the absolute solar brightness temperature in the far-infrared, carried out since 1971 with a balloon-borne lamellar-grating interferometer, have revealed (1) a flat minimum of the temperature profile in the spectral range between 60 and 100 kaysers, and (2) a variation of the temperature minimum with time. It is shown here that the variation of the solar temperature minimum observed from 1971 to 1978 is systematic and congruent with the variation of the yearly mean of the Zuerich Relative Sunspot Numbers over the same period of time. This suggests that the value of the solar temperature minimum varies with the solar cycle.
