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:
