QUOTE: "Regardless, the fact that there are sun-like stars with much higher variability suggests it is possible that the sun could be in a temporarily calm phase now and its activity may ramp up in the future, says Reinhold. He says that while we can’t predict exactly when this could happen, it would lead to brighter auroras and potentially dangerous solar eruptions that could damage our electrical grids."

DAVID: Since we cannot predict, we'll wait and see.

dhw: Damage to our electrical grids is the least of our worries! Look what an invisible virus can do to us! A major change to the sun could destroy the whole planet. We’d better not make your hands-on God too angry!

Did it occur to you that our calm sun is God's handiwork, protecting us?
