We've only been observing the Sun for how long? And we think we understand how its cycles are supposed to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no science geek except for maybe when it comes to chemistry, but since both poles are at the same polarity, I wonder and would like to know what will occur when this happens? I am aware from various space weather sites that this was supposed to be the most active sunspot cycle in memory. The fact that it's been quiet with such a long delay in its reversal is, well, eerie to me. If anything, the article disproves man-made global warming theory as the article speaks about this may mean the sun will start giving off less energy and light over the next cycle so as to provide relief from global warming. I don't hear any MSN media mentioning this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
