  • By the time the Earth reaches its closest point to the sun next January, scientists believe the star could be experiencing what's known as a solar maximum. Although the sun will still be some 91 million miles away, the peak in solar activity could affect us here on Earth. Derrick Pitts, chief astronomer at the Franklin Institute, joins CBS News to break down what happens to the sun and Earth during a solar maximum and how we can prepare.

    Derek has a beautiful voice!
    The sun at maximum activity is stunning to look at.
    The eleven year sun cycle is interesting.
    Apologies for making a boring list; I am too tired to do better right now.

      Because this happens so frequently and, Earth is prepped for such instances! We have a lovely magnetic field of our own which protects us. Because of this, we are left with some beautiful aurora borealis, and perhaps some minor things such as what the astronomer mentioned.

    Buy som water, toilet paper, and canned goods. Make sure you can heat your home in the winter if the power goes out. Lots of things can happen at any time and basic preparation can make a hard situation a little easier.
