HUGE SUNSPOT: One of the biggest sunspot groups in many years has just 
emerged over the sun's eastern limb.  The sunspot's magnetic canopy is 
crackling with M-class (medium-sized) solar flares and seems poised to 
launch even stronger X-class eruptions. The sunspot, named AR1339, is not 
yet directly facing Earth but it will be turning toward our planet in the 
days ahead. Check http://spaceweather.com for images of the behemoth and 
updates.

SUNSPOT TELESCOPE:  Sunspot AR1339 looks magnificent when viewed through 
Explore Scientific's White Light Solar Observing System. This 
safely-filtered telescope is designed for high-quality imaging of sunspots 
and it is now available in the Space Weather Store:
