Look at the Sun

Each UTC week (Monday start; the table column is that Monday’s date): we sum Git commits across the fixed public repo list in sources.githubRepos, count SoundCloud drops and play-ready minutes from the RSS pubDate, and plot sun and ionosphere on the same weeks. Sun: mean of SWPC daily sunspot numbers for days in the week. F10.7: each day is assigned its calendar month’s published NOAA monthly 10.7 cm flux, then we average across the week (so cross-month weeks blend; it is not sub-monthly observed daily F10.7). Weeks after the latest published NOAA month show a dash for F10.7 — not zero flux.

Charts and tables load from a saved snapshot on this site (look-at-the-sun-study.json). This page does not call GitHub, SoundCloud, or NOAA in your browser.

Ionosphere note: weekly F10.7 is built from NOAA’s monthly published flux, so it cannot resolve storm-scale Kp swings. It does sit on the same Monday-week axis as commits, playtime, and mean daily sunspots — useful for “slow background vs studio bursts,” not minute-by-minute propagation.
