March 10, 2006: It's official: Solar minimum has arrived. Sunspots have all 
but
vanished. Solar flares are nonexistent. The sun is utterly quiet.

Like the quiet before a storm.

This week researchers announced that a storm is coming--the most intense 
solar
maximum in fifty years. The prediction comes from a team led by Mausumi 
Dikpati
of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). "The next sunspot 
cycle
will be 30% to 50% stronger than the previous one," she says. If correct, the
years ahead could produce a burst of solar activity second only to the 
historic
Solar Max of 1958.
