[OKDXA] Sunspot Cycle, from SEDXC

[GENEW5LE at aol.com]

Gang,

As of yesterday (Aug 15th) a physicist with Marshall Space  Flight in 
Huntsville (NASA) announced  that a rare occurance has  happened. On July 
31st The sun 
gave birth to a single  sunspot, but  this was no ordinary sunspot, it was a 
backwards one. Backwards   sunspots only occurs just before a really large 
sunspot cycle. So  scientists  believe that this activity is indicating that 
the next  
cycle will indeed be a  large one. They also say that the backwards  sunspot 
is the beginning of a new  cycle, so if that is the case, as of  July 31st 
we're 
now in Cycle 24.
