Sun appears spotless for first time since 2026
On the morning of September 19, 2026, the Sun's disk was observed to be free of sunspots for the first time since February 2026, as solar activity continues to decline after reaching its peak in 2024. This calmness reflects the progression of the 25th solar cycle towards its minimum phase, during which new sunspots can appear at any time. Despite the reduced number of spots, the Sun remains capable of producing phenomena related to space weather. This change indicates a continued trend toward further solar quieting, but does not necessarily mean that the minimum has begun definitively.
