I wonder how exactly you can confirm the existence of monopoles on the sun.
They are supposed to be so elusive particles that I doubt you could determine their existence from so far away.

It would make more sense if those particles were found after they reached the earth. Even if from afar they noticed some strange behavior in the sun that is compatible with the scenario of monopoles being there, that still wouldn't be absolutely conclusive evidence, I think.


I am also wondering why they chose november 2000 as the time where they found those monopoles. The article that I linked in my previous post describe events that happened in that very year but from march to may.
Then the north and south pole flipped on 15 February 2001

November 2000 is in the middle, but nothing strange happened at that time, to my knowledge.

By the way apparently this reversal happens every 11 years or so, so for a long time it was predicted that the next would happen in 2012. More recent observations however seem to agree that it will be a little late and that it will happen in 2013.
