Sun’s next phase of activity will be mild
According to the Indian Institute of Science, and in particular to Prof. Choudhuri, the next active phase of our sun will be rather mild.
They have based the forecast using a new theoretical calculation, pointing out that some assumptions in the previous forecast model are unjustified.
Their final forecast, is that upcoming solar cycle will be 35% lower than the current one.
These sad news, arrives unexpected, after the more optimistic December forecast of the Marshall Space Flight Center, and in the days of “0″ Sunspots as stated by the recent NOAA reports.
Certainly next years solar reports will say if Indians researchers have discovered a more reliable forecast method.
