The Solar Cycle 25 Prediction Panel predicted in December 2019 [11] that solar cycle 25 will be similar to solar cycle 24, with the preceding solar cycle minimum in April 2020 (± 6 months), and the number of sunspots reaching a (smoothed) maximum of 115 in July 2025 (± 8 months). This prediction is in line with the current general agreement ...

Scientists said the sun is now in its solar maximum, or the peak of its 11-year solar cycle.
What's more, because NASA anticipates the solar maximum to continue into 2025, aurora chasers should have plenty more opportunities to catch the northern lights. ... Even the best predictions can ...
NASA says the sun is in the highly active "maximum phase" of its 11-year solar cycle.. That means there will probably be big solar storms bringing beautiful aurora in the next year or so. Solar ...
Solar maximum is the regular period of greatest solar activity during the Sun's 11-year solar cycle. During solar maximum, large numbers of sunspots appear, and the solar irradiance output grows by about 0.07%. [2] On average, the solar cycle takes about 11 years to go from one solar maximum to the next, with duration observed varying from 9 to ...
The longest total solar eclipse of the century. [57] Lasting 7 min 29 s, it is very close to the theoretical maximum, [58] and is predicted to be the longest eclipse between 4000 BC and AD 6000 (eclipse predictions by Fred Espenak, NASA/GSFC.DEPP). [59] 2187 Triple conjunction Mars–Saturn [56] 2197 September 2 Venus occults Spica. Last ...
Solar seasons play out not over the course of months, however, but in 11-year cycles that produce times of high activity, known as the solar maximum, and low activity known as the solar minimum.
