The current attempts to observe solar neutrinos are reviewed. It is concluded that serious consideration must be given to the possibility that the neutrino flux from the Sun is essentially zero even though we are not yet absolutely forced to this conclusion. Transient effects in the Sun are briefly discussed as a possible explanation for the lack of solar neutrinos.
