Dark spots, some as large as 50,000 miles in diameter, typically move across the surface of the sun, contracting and expanding as they go.
These strange and powerful phenomena are known as sunspots, but now they are all gone. Not even solar physicists know why it’s happening and what this odd solar silence might be indicating for our future.
Although periods of inactivity are normal for the sun, this current period has gone on much longer than usual and scientists are starting to worry—at least a little bit.
Recently 100 scientists from Europe, Asia, Latin America, Africa and North America gathered to discuss the issue at an international solar conference at Montana State University.
Today's sun is as inactive as it was two years ago, and solar physicists don’t have a clue as to why.

Sun causes global cooling... but not global warming?
This article reveals something scary about the Sun's effect on our climate. The scientists behind this study state that the Sun's recent lack of sunspot phenomena is directly correlated to recent "unexplained" data documenting global COOLING over the last 12+ months.
What is interesting is that they want to "blame" the Sun for the cooling phenomena, but "global warming" scientists are ignoring data which connects the recent upsurge in global temperatures to our Sun's activity too!
A LOT of research has come out relating the "global warming" phenomena to our Sun... NASA has released several studies over the past 12 months documenting that Mars and the moons around Jupiter are HEATING UP significantly... just like Earth.
Hmmm... maybe "global warming" has more to do with money than science.
I am 110% behind clean/sustainable living and environmental practices.
I am 120% against Trans-national Governing Bodies (Centralized Power) profiting politically and financially from a massive scam!
