| 0:00.0 | This is CBS Eye in the World. I'm John Batch with Bob Zimmerman. He keeps the website |
| 0:09.2 | behind the black. Sunspots activity. Bob watches the sunspots the maximum and the conduct |
| 0:15.9 | of our sun because it's just about as fundamental as you get for why we're here watching the |
| 0:20.6 | sun. Any change in the pattern, Bob? |
| 0:23.6 | Yeah, I published my revised graph of NOAA's monthly update of its graph of the number of |
| 0:31.8 | sunspots on the visible Earth-facing hemisphere of the sun. I published it this week. And in September, |
| 0:40.5 | the number of sunspots rose, but not a great, and in fact, it now is beginning to suggest |
| 0:46.1 | that we might actually be at the maximum right now, the solar maximum, which would mean |
| 0:50.8 | we're at the maximum two years earlier than predicted. Being two years early and predicted, |
| 0:57.8 | a fast rise to a solar maximum in the past would suggest an extremely, extremely active |
| 1:04.8 | solar maximum. But right now, the amount of activity is not at that level. So if we're |
| 1:10.0 | at the maximum now, and it plateaus and stays it is approximate fluctuated level for the |
| 1:15.6 | next three or four years, this would be actually a relatively weak solar maximum. This is |
| 1:23.5 | the sun doing things we just unprecedented, we just don't understand. It rose very fast, |
| 1:28.1 | which is against that very powerful maximum. It appears now to be at a plateau much earlier |
| 1:33.9 | than normal, which is unprecedented. Usually, when if you rose fast, you'd have a much higher |
| 1:39.6 | maximum. Basically, we don't know what's going on. That's the bottom line, John. And anyone |
| 1:47.1 | who says they understand the sun and its influence on our climate doesn't know what they're |
| 1:52.3 | talking about and should not be paid attention to. No, but see, what is that? This is a privately |
| 1:58.7 | built commercial lunar land, built by the company Incutive Machines. It has several |
| 2:05.0 | contracts with NASA to bring NASA and other payloads to the moon. No, the sea is the |
| 2:10.6 | name of its land. Its first land is now ready for launch and its scheduled for launch in |
