Muhammad Gharib, head of the sun’s department at the National Institute of Astronomical and Geophysical Research, answered questions and concerns that the sun had entered a “catastrophic hibernation” stage; What threatens life on Earth.

Gharib explained, in statements he made to “Masrawy” today, Saturday, that the solar activity represented by sunspots, has been monitored for several months; These are natural conditions that occur at the beginning of any new sunspot.

The head of the Department of the Sun at the National Institute for Astronomical and Geophysical Research added that the globe lives at the beginning of the 25th cycle, which are natural things that usually happen at the beginning of the cycle, in which the sun is quiet, and continues for a period ranging between 3 and 4 years, to appear every two or three sunspots, And if the sunspots do not appear after the mentioned period, we can judge that abnormal things will happen. But it has not appeared yet.

Gharib pointed out that the solar activity – sunspots – that had not appeared for several days is normal in the beginning of any new cycle; But its effect on climate is only if sunspots do not appear for a long time; many years.

The head of the Sun department at the National Institute for Astronomical and Geophysical Research continued: We are now in the period of the solar lull for sunspots for the 25th session, and naturally these spots do not appear at the beginning of the cycle; But the status of this session cannot be judged now.

Gharib stressed that there are no fears or harm from that, as some have repeated, following: “There is no such thing, and who are these scholars until they judge the sun and the earth by that? Are there reliable sources ?! And do they have evidence of weak solar activity?” !

The head of the Department of the Sun at the National Institute for Astronomical and Geophysical Research said: Astronomers predicted the power of this cycle according to their astronomical calculations, and that it is the strongest from the last cycle in terms of the number of sunspots … and judging it by strength and weakness comes in terms of solar activity, and the largest phenomenon indicating the existence of solar activity we can Always easily monitored are sunspots.

Gharib pointed out that there is no negative impact on the globe at all, because the sun is calm and the solar system continues for a period or months, and there is no evidence of an ice age or an indication of that.

And news reports mentioned that the sun entered the frame of blocking, which may cause freezing weather, earthquakes and starvation; Where it is currently in the period of the “minimum solar energy”, which means that activity on its surface has decreased, as astronomers believe that we are about to enter the deepest period of “receding” of the recorded sunlight at all, with the sunspot virtually disappearing.
