NASAs own data is showing that the star our globe revolves around is dimming. With no sunspots reported in 96 days, the sun is going dark and the evidence could point to an approaching ice age.
As the sun gets successively more blank with each day, due to lack of sunspots, it is also dimming, says the website Watts Up With That? According to data from NASAs Spaceweather, so far in 2017, 96 days (27%) of the days observing the sun have been without sunspots.
Today at Cape Canaveral, SpaceXlaunched a new sensor to the International Space Station named TSIS-1. Its mission: to measure the dimming of the suns irradiance. It will replace the aging SORCE spacecraft. NASA SDO reports that as the sunspot cycle plunges toward its 11-year minimum, NASA satellites are tracking a decline in total solar irradiance (TSI). Watts Up With That?
The Daily Sheeples Joe Joseph breaks it down for those who dont closely follow the suns changes. He says there is a correlation between major changes on the sun and the behavior of the Earth, especially now as it reaches its 11-year-cycles solar minimum.
I guess you could say, in a very generalistic sense and I mean, this is as vanilla as you can possibly make it that as the sun gets quieter so does our magnetic field get weaker or so it appears to be, says Joseph. Is there a mini ice age coming? I dont know, he said.
But other sources say its more than possible that we will see a mini ice age in the next three years due to the dimming of our sun. A 15-YEAR long mini ice age could be due to hit the Northern hemisphere in just four years as the sun prepares for hibernation

In related news, SUV’s go on sale. Plus dairy farms get subsidies to breed more cows.
Research the ‘Maunder Minimum’, its what the Russians are preparing for,
nothing like hard data vs “historical-assumptive, pseudo-scientific” guessing.
We have 96 days without a sunspot, and now they're predicting another ice age?
Gimme a break.
The Sun Is Going DARK: No Sunspots For 96 Days; Ice Age Approaches
OK. Who didn’t pay the utility bill?
Dang SUVs!
I bought a new sweater
Sunspots is the cable company’s blanket excuse, yet, my cable is still messing up.
LOL
Hard to believe it's been 19 years.

Baby it’s cold outside.....
Yup. 18 for me.
Women and children (and minorities) hardest hit.
And here's one of many pictures I took of the total eclipse:
Mom used to sing that song to me.
You’re right. Many scientists think that we’re not going into a regular solar minimum but rather a Grand Solar Minimum. If they’re right it’s going to rock our world. Cold kills. And atmospheric compression precipitation events can play havoc on crop productions. We’ll see.
B.S. Its a normal cycle. 2009 had 260 spotless days.
