Solar scientists worldwide are working to disprove the hypothesis that man is primarily responsible for climate change, according to Dr. Jeff Kuhn, Associate Director of the Institute for Astronomy at the University of Hawaii. In the view of Dr. Kuhn and other top scientists, the Sun changes Earth\u2019s climate. \u201cAs a scientist who knows the data, I simply can\u2019t accept (the claim that man plays a dominant role in Earth\u2019s climate),\u201d he states.<\/p>\n

Dr. Kuhn last week announced breakthrough research on the role of the Sun \u2013 after years of precise satellite measurements, undistorted by Earth\u2019s stratosphere, he and his team discovered that the Sun did not change much in size, as has generally been believed. Rather, the Sun is surprisingly stable, its diameter changing by less than one part in a million during the last 12 years.<\/p>\n

Dr. Kuhn\u2019s team, which includes scientists from Stanford University in California and Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa in Brazil, used NASA\u2019s SOHO satellite to obtain resolutions 10 times better than telescopes on Earth, allowing them to measure the Sun\u2019s diameter of approximately 865,000 miles to an accuracy of a few hundred feet. In 2017, when the world\u2019s most powerful telescope — his institute\u2019s Advanced Technology Solar Telescope — starts operating on Hawaii\u2019s Mt. Haleakala’s summit at a resolution 10 times better still, he expects to zero in on details that unravel the mystery of how minute changes on the Sun\u2019s surface affect climate on Earth. NASA\u2019s SOHO satellite revealed that 100 metre high bumps 90,000 kilometres apart cover the Sun\u2019s surface. With his new telescope, Dr. Kuhn expects to capture never-before-seen details of the solar surface.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t predict the climate on Earth until we understand these changes on the sun,\u201d concludes Kuhn.<\/p>\n
