Nobuddy313 on Nostr: We are seeing sunspots higher in the #sun because we are in the period of solar ...
We are seeing sunspots higher in the #sun because we are in the period of solar maximum. During this period there are more sunspots and more solar flares. A solar cycle (from minimum to maximum and back to minimum) lasts about 11 years. We are in solar cycle 25. While astronomers have been consistently watching sunspots since 1755 we have only had the instruments to record detailed data on solar activity for three solar cycles (23 to 25) - thanks to the SOHO orbiter being launched 2 December 1995.
