BTW, this original source article, the one from NASA, is now out of date, it looks to be based on satellite observations from 2004 to 2006, and at least one new satelite was launched to study planetary insolation and solar radience, so we shoudl be looking for the newest inforamtion and conclusions.
Thats important when assessing science information. You have to know the provenance of the information, WHERE it comes from and who's authority it has, and you also need to be aware of the date of the information, because science changes over time, thats the nature of how the scientific method works.
I looked at the NASA website for a copy of the article on which this was based but have not found it yet.
Oddly, from teh clues I have gotten in that search, it does not look like the source article was actually a scientific report, nor a peer reviewed paper. It's source author, Rani Gran, is a nasa public relations specialist.
So, based on what I have seen so far, both the science daily and daily tech articles are based on a PR report, not on anything we would call climate science, and definitely not anything peer reviewed.
This is why you must NEVER TRUST THE MEDIA!
