BIG SUNSPOT has emerged!!

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Chris,

Thank you for posting your excellent image of the new (and reportedly powerful) sunspot group AR652. It may end up disrupting a lot of communication on Earth here for several days (possibly weeks?). We look forward to your future images of this interesting group in the future.

AR649 Flare

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Chris,

An excellent image of a sunspot group (AR649) showing the umbra, penumbra, faculae and the flares. The flares would have been interesting viewed at the edge of the Sun as well. Thank you for sharing this image with us all.

Sunspots, sunday afternoon

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Garry,

A spectacular image of a sunspot! The umbra, penumbra and detail surrounding this sunspot is impressive. I believe that you also captured a small flare as well (bright curve connecting the umbra and penumbra). I look forward to your future images.

Jake,

The sunspot groups, especially the inferior, appear to be growing in size as you point out. Their appearance will be interesting over the next few weeks. Thank you for sharing this image with us.
