You do really lousy research. Probably because you are so short and can't
see the books for smarter taller people.
Solar maximum could hit us harder and sooner than we thought. How
dangerous will the sun's chaotic peak be?

The sun is quickly approaching a major peak in solar activity. Experts
warn it could potentially begin by the end of 2023, years before initial
predictions suggested.
From a distance, the sun may seem calm and steady. But zoom in, and our
home star is actually in a perpetual state of flux, transforming over time
from a uniform sea of fire to a chaotic jumble of warped plasma and back
again in a recurring cycle.
Every 11 years or so, the sun's magnetic field gets tangled up like a ball
of tightly wound rubber bands until it eventually snaps and completely
flips — turning the north pole into the south pole and vice versa. In the
lead-up to this gargantuan reversal, the sun amps up its activity:
belching out fiery blobs of plasma, growing dark planet-size spots and
emitting streams of powerful radiation.
This period of increased activity, known as solar maximum, is also a
potentially perilous time for Earth, which gets bombarded by solar storms
that can disrupt communications, damage power infrastructure, harm some
living creatures (including astronauts) and send satellites plummeting
toward the planet.
And some scientists think the next solar maximum may be coming sooner —
and be much more powerful — than we thought.
Originally, scientists predicted that the current solar cycle would peak
in 2025. But a bumper crop of sunspots, solar storms and rare solar
phenomena suggest solar maximum could arrive by the end of this year at
the earliest — and several experts told Live Science we are poorly
prepared.

The sun is not the sole controller of Earth's weather or climate.
