Sun activity is not constant over time, it is varying with ~11 years period. Since 2008 Sun was unexpectedly quiet, no Solar flares. It was quite phenomena and mystery for science society (i.e. no Solar flares => no new data => nothing to study => do we need to pay scientists if they are doing nothing and waiting for flares? ), but not a long time ago Sun "cured" and started to make scientists happy In nearest years we will get more and more solar events.

PS Sun's "day" (time needed for Sun to make a full turn) is 28 days, Moon need roughly 28 days to make one orbit around the Earth, someone's else.... period... is roughly 28 days...
