Description

Back in 2012, I would not know in advance that this would be the only gigantic flare I could capture in cycle 24. We are now moving from cycle 24 to cycle 25 and things are still very quiet so far but we may expect quite a nice new cycle peaking in 2024 and significant activity coming in anytime soon, so we need to be alert. Yet, patients too (Source: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-07690-0)

It is now cloudy and with a few drops of rain in central and southern Chile. The perfect time to review some of the dusty images in the album.
