Default The Sun is getting dimmer

Alarming story in the Indie on Sunday (taken from a paper in Science)
says the Sun has dimmed by about 10 percent in 50 years.

Nobody knows why. Soot in the atmosphere? Trouble on the Sun: beta
particles want equality with alphas? Hydrogen wants to be given equal
weight with Helium?

Just hope it lasts to the afternoon of June 8th.
