Hi Folks,
I read somewhere last year that our Sun was supposed to start its Maximum Solar Cycle very soon, but It looks like I have been had again by bad Information on the Internet.
I have even purchased a Full aperture solar filter for my 6 inch refractor, awaiting the start of the New Solar Maximum cycle, But according to this site,
NASA/Marshall Solar Physics.
We are in fact right at the Minimum, if you go by the charts that are posted on this website.
The Solar sunspot predictions that are on this site say that I have a long wait ahead of me.
Could we be heading into another Maunder minimum?
We have been experiencing one of the coldest and snowiest winters here In NH, than we have had in quite a while.
