Sunspots online

There are currently no active regions with sunspots on the Sun.

Chromosphere floccules without spots

Now in the chromosphere of the Sun there are no active regions of increased luminosity (flocculi) without spots.

Spots can be single or group. If connected, they form active sites, which are given an official number marked NOAA. Classified based on size and complexity on the Zurich scale. Sunspots appear as dark areas on a star. These are regions of intense magnetic field associated with flares and coronal mass release. They appear darker because they have colder temperatures (3700 K). This occurs because magnetic fields prevent heat from increasing.

Although they look darker, when viewed in X-ray and UV imaging, they are brighter than the surrounding areas.

The missing energy is located in magnetic fields. They rise above the surface layer and maintain their power while the rest remains weak. Strong magnetic fields form loops and heat up to a million Kelvin. At this temperature, we will not be able to see the plasma in visible light, but it is visible in UV and X-rays. Changes in the magnetic field provide key clues to predicting space weather.

Sunspots are constantly changing, but some linger for hours or weeks. The total is based on an 11-year cycle. The peak is called the solar maximum, and the valley is called the minimum.

The maximum lingers for several days and hides all the spots, and at the minimum there are hundreds of them. Cycles have been numbered and tracked since 1755. The last one (24th) was in December 2008. Determining the number of spots is more difficult, because not each one is equal to one, but the active region is correlated with ten.

The Sun is entering a period of unusual and prolonged hibernation, reports the Associated Press, citing a report by astronomers from the National Solar Observatory, made at a solar physics conference in New Mexico. In 2020, all spots on the Sun may disappear for many years, or even several decades. The reasons why activity on the Sun is decreasing are unknown to scientists. However, they explain that these changes will not affect the quality of sunlight and heat that the Sun emits.

Astronomers' predictions are based on the latest observations. They say there are fewer sunspots, the storms that rage at the poles of the solar corona are weakening, and the jet streams on the Sun are disappearing.

All these trends will become especially noticeable in 2020, when the next solar cycle begins. Let us recall that every 22 years the magnetic poles of the Sun change places, forming 11-year cycles of solar activity. The last time truly high solar activity was observed was in 2001, when spots appeared on the Sun every day, and solar flares and storms caused interference in the operation of artificial Earth satellites. The current solar cycle, which began in 2009, has already been called the calmest in the 21st century. However, it now looks like the next cycle will be even quieter.

Let us recall that in February the largest flare occurred on the Sun in the last 4 years. The flares affected the Earth's magnetic field for several days. Data from the Stereo-B and Soho spacecraft showed that the explosion caused a rapid but not very strong coronal mass ejection, where charged particles are released into space. When the solar wind reached Earth, it caused power grid failures in several different places. Radio broadcasting was temporarily stopped in China.

An analysis of photographs taken by the Solar Dynamics Observatory showed that the giant solar flare was caused by five sunspots rotating simultaneously.

“Around the World” said that a new solar minimum could lead to a new little ice age, as was the case in the 17th century. But before you get scared, you need to remember that this is not why the 17th century went down in history: humanity associates it with a cardinal intellectual revolution, which was called the scientific revolution of the 17th century and was reflected in all aspects of human activity. It is quite possible that Bach would have been a brilliant composer even without this, but without the invention of the hammer clavier and without the efforts of 17th-century mathematicians solving the problem of uniform temperament of a twelve-step chromatic scale, he would not have been able to compose the “Well-Tempered Clavier.”

The face of our luminary on July 17, 2014 is almost pure.
Like the face of a girl using acne cream.

Experts analyzing data received from the space solar observatory - Solar Dynamics Observatory - assure: the current maximum of solar activity is the calmest of all those observed over the past 100 years. Despite the fact that two years ago - exactly on July 23 - one of the most powerful X-ray flares occurred, enhanced by the interaction of several sunspots.

Cleaner and cleaner

Scientists warned about upcoming anomalies on the Sun back in 2010 - almost at the beginning of the current 24th cycle. This was stated by Matthew Penn and William Livingston from the American National Solar Observatory (NSO).

Colleagues echoed: they say that the period of minimal solar activity, which lasted more than 26 months instead of the usual 16, ended with a great delay. They say that the solar wind, the flow of charged particles emitted by the star, is weakening. His blood pressure, according to the Southwestern Research Institute in San Antonio (USA), has decreased by an average of 20 percent over the past 50 years. And this is not good...

But most importantly, heliophysicists have noticed: sunspots and prominences - these unique indicators of the vital activity of the star - are becoming fewer and fewer. The previous 23rd 11-year cycle was the most modest in this sense in a century. The current one threatens to become even more modest - there is already evidence of this. And in the future the spots may disappear altogether.

According to the forecasts of Penn and Livingston, by the 25th cycle there will be a complete cleansing of the star. And the period of minimal activity will last for decades.

Sun July 23, 2014: spots began to appear. Well, very frail.

Magnetic induction decreases

Spots arise as a result of disturbances in individual sections of the Sun's magnetic field. They are also related to its size. For example, it is known: spots do not appear if the magnetic induction in them falls below 1500 Gauss.
From 1990 to the present time, Penn and Livingston have examined several thousand sunspots. And they found that the strength of their fields decreased from 2700 to 2000 gauss. And it continues to decline. Individual “dips” were recorded up to 1800. That is, the state of the luminary’s magnetic field is approaching the point where spots simply cannot appear.

Gloomy forecasts are coming true.

There are only 500 gauss left before the threshold value of magnetic induction. The reason for the “weakening” of the Sun is not yet clear to scientists. Most likely it is hidden in deep processes. Something has changed there. But what exactly? Perhaps the plasma circulation inside and near the surface of the star was disrupted.

What does this mean?

A Little Ice Age is expected. Least..

If events continue to develop in the same spirit, the Sun will plunge into an ultra-long minimum of activity. And something similar has already happened in the history of mankind. For example, from 1310 to 1370, from 1645 to 1715. At this time, the number of sunspots decreased a thousand times compared to “normal” years.

And the Earth was covered by the so-called Little Ice Ages. Moreover, the total number of sunspots at this time was a thousand times less than it would have accumulated in the same number of years in our era. According to chroniclers, the Thames and the Seine froze at that time, and snow fell even in the south of Italy.

Researchers have differing opinions about when the current Little Ice Age will occur.

Some threaten them by 2020, others earlier.

If the Sun does not warm well, the Earth will freeze completely - it will turn into a “snowball”. And this has already happened.

Already at the very beginning of 2017, all sunspots disappeared from the Sun. Sunspots are areas where strong magnetic fields (“tubes” of magnetic fields) exit into the photosphere of the Sun. Since the temperature of these regions is approximately 1500 kelvins lower than the temperature of their surroundings, they are visible as dark spots on the solar disk. The main indicator of the level of solar activity is the number of sunspots (areas where “tubes” of a very powerful magnetic field extend to the surface of the star).

The number of sunspots waxes and wanes
with a period of approximately 11 years, which is characterized by a fairly rapid (about 4 years) increase in the number of sunspots, and then a slower
(about 7 years), its decrease. During the period of increased activity on the Sun, flares occur much more often and “coronal holes” appear (i.e., areas with increased speed of the solar wind and plasma ejection), which become the cause of magnetic storms on Earth. During the peak of activity in April 2014, astronomers observed 116 sunspots on the Sun.

Scientists have been keeping records of solar activity since 1755. and the current cycle is considered the weakest in the last 100 years. According to preliminary forecasts, spots will “disappear” more and more often - first for several days, and then for several weeks, and in the future the Sun will be “empty” for several months at a time.

When sunspots disappear, contrary to popular belief, space weather does not freeze, and amazing things begin to happen (for example, bright northern lights caused by the flow of solar wind). Also, when the sunspots disappear, The sun begins to emit extreme ultraviolet light(which is very important in the era of Aquarius, the era of the violet ray). Also, during solar minimum, the heliosphere contracts, causing interstellar space to become closer to Earth and cosmic rays from across the Galaxy to penetrate the Solar System with relative ease.

In astrology there is such a thing as "harmonious system Sun - Moon." This means that as the influence of the Sun weakens, the influence of the Moon will increase. Consequently, the Moon will strengthen in 2017 (the year of the arrival of new water on the planet) its beneficial effect on the entire mass of water on planet Earth (the Earth’s surface is 70% covered with water), and not only on planet Earth, but on all planets of the solar system. The Moon, in harmonious tandem with the Sun, will increase its influence on humans (an adult’s body is also 70% water). This becomes especially important for the arrival of new children, since scientists have proven that at the moment of conception, when the mother’s egg is fertilized by the father’s sperm, the proportion of water in it is 95%! Consequently, the energy-information matrix of water contains everything that should be in a living cell.

Water, like a liquid crystal, is an accumulator, carrier and keeper of information. Physical fields of very different nature can also be carriers of information. Thus, the possibility of remote information interaction of the liquid crystalline structure of water with objects of various natures using electromagnetic, acoustic and other fields has been established. Thus, Space (approaching the planet during the disappearance of sunspots from the solar disk) has a unique opportunity to convey to the planet in the best possible way new information about new water. And this opportunity is being used in the widest possible way. We can see this from the amount of snow that fell in January 2017. Heavy snowfalls came as a real surprise to warm European countries. In Greece, during the days of abnormal weather there were two-meter snowdrifts. In 2017, the snow-covered Acropolis appeared in a completely new light, and no one had ever seen the famous palace on Crete, where, according to legend, the Minotaur lived, in the snowdrifts. Those who are currently in Rome are sharing photos of the snow-covered Colosseum and frozen fountains in St. Peter's Square. And in northern Africa, where snow has never been seen, this year you can thoroughly enjoy its snow-white purity. In Russia, the weather also brought many surprises during Christmas week: a month's worth of precipitation fell in many regions in just a few days. New life, new water, new information are rushing to the planet. Snow, snowflakes, and water crystals greatly increase the ability to receive and transmit information from the higher Worlds.

And one more interesting fact: 2017 in Russia has been declared the Year of Ecology and the Year of Specially Protected Natural Areas (SPNA) and the protection of everything connected with them: environmental protection, protection of rare animals, large mammals. The coming year has been declared the Year of Protected Natural Areas because exactly one hundred years ago, on January 11, 1917, in Russia, near Lake Baikal, the first state nature reserve called “Barguzinsky” was created. At the beginning of the twentieth century, the state faced the problem of exterminating the Barguzin sable, so the reserve was named after this rare animal.

In the coming new year, we have new opportunities, in unity with all of Russia, to serve the planet and all forms of planetary life.

You will begin to radiate the energy of love and peace, filling the space around you and everything that falls into it. The violet flame will show you how to correct the negativity in your karma and help you burn it away. Your thoughts will become bright and positive. You will firmly follow the path of transmutation and nothing can make you leave it. High vibrations of the violet flame will penetrate every cell of your body, cleansing and healing it. The violet flame is the fire of forgiveness and mercy given to us by the spiritual realms. Touching him will change your whole life, the main thing is not to betray him

And remember: all healing occurs through exacerbation of diseases, and cleansing of the family through negativity and conflicts (this is burning out). Your task is not to break loose, not to leave the Path, to maintain peace and mercy in yourself and around you. No matter what happens around you, you have only Peace and Love in your Soul, and external actions depend on the circumstances, sometimes you need to twist someone.

Before listening, drink a glass of clean water. You can listen without headphones. Listen to recordings in a quiet room with dim lighting, where no one can disturb you. Try just meditating. Remove all thoughts from your head. Focus on tone.
Do not use Dolby TM or other noise reduction systems. Do not listen while driving a car or while working. The time and frequency of listening depends on your inner feelings. Start with 10-15 minutes a day, gradually increasing the time every day.

At first, you shouldn’t listen to several different compositions in a row, especially since listening to each composition is primarily your inner work, meditation. Try to feel when your brain and whole body begin to respond to the frequency, this should happen every time you listen. When this becomes easy, then you yourself will understand how much, when and how to WORK with frequencies.

Most likely, there are no spots on the far side of the star now either, since they were not visible two weeks ago, while that side was turned towards our planet.

Every 11 years, the Sun’s magnetic field changes, alternately strengthening and weakening, and with it, once every 11 years, the number of spots on the star reaches a maximum, and approximately halfway between the peaks, a minimum of solar activity occurs. During the years of maximum intensity of the star's magnetic field, the most sunspots and flares appear on the Sun, which cause magnetic storms on Earth.

The “quiet period” - the solar minimum - usually lasts about a year and should occur at the end of 2018 - the first half of 2019. First, complex groups of sunspots and associated solar flares will completely disappear on the Sun - apparently, we are now going through this stage. Then, regions of hot plasma in the star's corona will disappear, and the X-ray radiation they produce will drop to almost zero background levels.

The remaining sunspots are extremely simplified and, although they will still be visible on the disk, they will no longer be able to heat the plasma or produce flares. Then the spots will completely disappear, this can happen in the next 2-3 months. After this, at the minimum point, the magnetic energy of the Sun almost completely vanishes and it degenerates into an almost perfectly symmetrical object without any features. In this form, our star can exist from several months to a year, after which new magnetic field flows gradually begin to emerge from the depths of the Sun, the first spots appear and a new 11-year cycle begins.

“Right now we’re pretty close to another low for about a year,” says Bogachev. - Minima are different, sometimes during a minimum the spots do not completely disappear, that is, the minimums are not so deep and the activity of the Sun does not drop to zero. Now the fact that the spots have disappeared completely and there have been no flares for almost a month, and we have not yet reached the minimum, seems to indicate that the minimum is likely to be very deep, during which activity will probably drop to zero.”

As a rule, the minimum solar activity lasts a year. During this time, the planet does not have time to “react,” but if this period drags on for decades, the Earth has time to “rebuild” and the climate on the planet becomes colder. Thus, the Little Ice Age on Earth coincided with a disruption in the solar cycle - the Maunder Minimum. Then activity on the Sun froze at a minimum point for several decades; no sunspots were observed on it for almost 50 years.

“The very fact that the low is deep but short will most likely not affect anything, but if there is a risk that the low will be prolonged, then this could be an unfavorable situation,” Bogachev says.

At the same time, existing knowledge about the Sun does not allow scientists to predict how the next solar cycle will develop.

The disappearance of sunspots is reported on the website of the Laboratory of X-ray Solar Astronomy of the Physical Institute. P.N. Lebedev RAS (FIAN).
