My astronomy class went out yesterday to look at the sun through the telescope and my prof was disappointed that there was no sunspot for us to view. Maybe this is the reason. I linked this email to him.
I’m more interested in this stuff than ever before, mainly because I understand it so much better.
If he’s an astronomy prof I’m surprised he doesn’t already know about the low sunspot cycle although many profs I knew in my college days didn’t do much reading outside their textbook.
