Solar cycle: rebooted
The Deeps of Time reports:link-icon: that the solar minima we’ve been experiencing of late has come to an end; solar activity, according to NASA, has begun to increase again:link-icon:.
That is: we should begin seeing more sunspots and flares again, solar phenomena which have been essentially absent since about January of this year.
Actually, the timing is ideal: auroras are always at their best when observed in a night sky in winter.

I started blogging back in 2004 -- in May, if the Wayback Machine is to be believed. Not that I remember the exact day. To be honest, I didn't take it that seriously then; it was a fun distraction, but nothing more.
That all changed, I think, once the Danish cartoons were published, and the assault on the right to freedom of expression became very visible. With the recent issues in Canada concerning the "human rights" commissions, the gravity of the matter has only increased, and my interest in blogging has increased right along with it.
I used to blog at a domain called Time Immortal, but it seemed to be the right time for a change -- there's been a lot of that in my life of late. Hence this blog: a fresh start, and proof positive that I won't shut up even if I get shut down once in a while.
