Solarcycle 24 has so far produced very few sunspots and now there is a debate wheter cycle 24 has really started or not. This sunspot minimum is so deep and prolonged as such a lack of solar activity has not been seen in soon 200 years.
Some scientists are already predicting a new "small ice-age" like the one in the middle of the 17:th century as a result.
But today there finally emerged some sunspots on the surface of the sun...

did you spot them?
Yup!
I ll take those sunspots!! :)
Grace, I wouldn't.... If I spotted sunspots that big I would run for cover immediately or travel to the dark side of the earth and stay in the dark until they disappeared!
LOL Hans, but in general, they keep up sunny and warm, don't they?
