The sun will reach solar maximum, or a peak in activity across its 11-year cycle, about a year sooner than originally predicted. Auroras, solar flares and space weather are all expected to increase.

Higher solar activity brings more radiation, which can damage satellite electronics and force some satellites to deorbit ...

Sunspot and solar flare activity, which can disrupt communications and electrical systems on Earth, will increase until a peak sometime between 2023 and 2025.

The average sunspot numbers for January and February 2023 were some of the highest for around 10 years, according to NOAA data, with January seeing 143 sunspots, while February had 110.
