| 0:04.0 | This is CBS, I on the world. I'm John Bachelor. Behind the Black exploring Bob Zimmerman is going to update us on the sunspots that are |
| 0:12.0 | Unreliable Bob we were on our way to the moon with sunspots and then |
| 0:17.5 | what's happened? |
| 0:18.5 | Yep, I do this every month and every month the conclusion is scientists really do not know what's going on every month and so what happens this last past month the sunspot activity on the sun facing hemisphere of sun, the amount of sunspots in September, crashed, went way down, and previously for the last five months, the number of sun some spots per month had been growing with |
| 0:45.2 | great acceleration and way above the predictions way way above all the |
| 0:51.0 | predictions now it's crashed but it's not crashed to the |
| 0:55.0 | predictions. It's still way above the predictions. So the scientists don't |
| 0:58.6 | really know what's happening. Their predictions are all been wrong. They've |
| 1:02.4 | been guessing when they guess their guesses and the sun does things to make their first guess right, |

| 1:20.0 | And when the sun is more active in sunspots that produces, that's associated with a warming |
| 1:28.3 | climate on the earth routinely. |
| 1:30.3 | When the sun is less active, that's associated with a cooler climate on the earth routinely. |
| 1:36.0 | And this higher activity as we're entering solemn action now strongly suggest that it's a major factor in the in any |
| 1:46.0 | warming that might go on right now in our climate and we must recognize that in |
| 1:50.8 | any discussions of the climate. It could be other factors. The |
| 1:56.1 | uncertainties here are gigantic, the uncertainties, but it's a factor that has |
| 2:01.0 | to be considered if we are going to discuss the climate. |
