This nonsense was left as an answer either by a fool or someone who actually believes that the earth will end on 12/12/2012:
"lets put it this way, in 2013, in may, the sun will THEN be at its solar maximum. eventually there will be enough radiation to do god knows what to the human existance. basically we will all die a horrible death over a space of 3 years because of starvation, dieing of thirst, and e.t.c., so,not something to be looking forward to hu'h"
I do know that a delusion person wrote the paragraph above. But, I have a degree in science and studied astrophysics extensively in preparation to teach astronomy and astrophysics.The fate of the solar system is not determined by Mayan prophecy, but by science. In about 4 billion years, the sun will become a red giant, expanding beyond the orbit of Mars and incinerating the inner planets. When the sun has exhausted Hydrogen and Helium in its nuclear fusion reactions, it will start to make larger and larger atoms. By the time it gets to the production of iron, it will explode in a nova and leave behind one of a number of possible dwarf stars: white dwarf, brown dwarf, black hole, etc. The material of the sun and solar system will be part of the explosion's debris cloud left behind, a nebula. We can not accurately predict exactly what will happen in 4 billion years and there are so many variables after a star novas (explodes) that we can only guess by observing other nebulae in the galaxy. It is even possible that a new star will eventually develop from the debris cloud if there is enough Hydrogen to start with.

∙ 11y agoSunspot activity tends to be at a maximum. Although dark patches mottle the sun's surface, sunspots are actually associated with slightly elevated levels of solar irradiation.
The next solar maximum should occur by the fall of 2013, and is expected to be the about the smallest since 1906.

What is the name of the light visible during a solar eclipse due to the Moon's rough surface?
The visible light around the rough Moon surface during a solar eclipse is caled Baily's Beads.
Which statement describes how the absorption of solar energy by the Earth's surface changes during an ice age?
During an ice age, the Earth's surface is covered by a larger area of ice and snow. This increased ice and snow cover increases the Earth's albedo, or reflectivity, causing more solar energy to be reflected back into space rather than being absorbed by the surface. As a result, the absorption of solar energy by the Earth's surface decreases during an ice age.
Energy radiated from the surface of the sun visible during a solar eclipse appears in the?
corona?
What is the difference between solar minimum and solar maximum?
The minimum and maximum refers to the number of sunspots.
Could ancients see solar flares?
They could see solar flares during total solar eclipses. They could probably not see them on the surface of the sun....but they could of seen the Borialis' they could probably not see them on the surface of the sun....but they could of seen the Borialis'
Which solar feature is shaped like an arch?
A solar flare arches up from the surface of the sun.
Do a lot of sunspots appear during a solar maximum?
Sunspots appear pretty much all the time, but there are more of them during a solar maximum.
What is a solar max?
Solar max (aka solar maximum) refers to period of greatest activity during the solar cycle of the Sun.
What is a positive feature of the ozone layer?
It blocks Solar ultra-violet radiation from reaching Earth's surface.
What is the name of the light visible during a solar eclipse due to the Moon's rough surface?
The visible light around the rough Moon surface during a solar eclipse is caled Baily's Beads.
Sunspots are most numerous in the sun in solar maximum or solar minimum?
Solar Maximum

Sunspots on the sun?
Noone knows for sure how many there are. Currently, it is in a solar maximum which is a stage after a solar flare which is the biggest explosion that can occur in space, During a solar maximum sunspots develop. so the numbers keep growing

What is the definition of solar max?
Solar maximum or solar max is a normal period of greatest solar activity in the 11 year solar cycle of the Sun. During solar maximum, large numbers of sunspots appear and the sun's irradiance output grows by about 0.1%.[1] The increased energy output of solar maxima can impact global climate and recent studies have shown some correlation with regional weather patterns.At solar maximum, the Sun's magnetic field lines are the most distorted due to the magnetic field on the solar equator rotating at a slightly faster pace than at the solar poles. The solar cycle takes an average of about 11 years to go from one solar maximum to the next, with an observed variation in duration of 9 to 14 years for any given solar cycle.Large solar flares often occur during a maximum. For example, the Solar storm of 1859 struck the Earth with such intensity that the northern lights could be seen as far south as Rome, approximately 42° north of the equator.
What solar feature can increase the solar wind?
Solar flares can increase solar wind.
