The graph below shows Hathaway’s prediction in red, and the counted sunspot numbers in blue.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

NASA and the IPCC have one thing in common. A divergence problem.
You need to make outrageous projections to assure additional funding for future research.
Based on past performance NASA should be defunded.
@Mike: The problem with the funding is as you say. If it doesnt have an extinction level event ‘worst case scenario’ to excite the funding committees then it doesnt get a look in.

NASA forecasters 'nailed' the 12/2008 minimum by April, 2010…
Any further word on the NASA whistle blower who claims that NASA over-reported sun spots on pupose to prevent the public from having concerns about a possible deep solar minimum?
