🌞 😱 Sun news for April 29, 2024: Giant sunspot continues to grow 🤔 🥳 Sunspot region AR3654 continues to increase in size and maintain its magnetic complexity. We expected more from the region, and it did not disappoint. 🫣 😱 👏 It fired off 15 of the observation period’s 17 flares, including two M flares. The region also grew from an area twice that of Earth to more than three times Earth. With your eclipse glasses, you should be able to glimpse it from Earth. AR3654 is located near the equ

Two Weeks in the Life of a Sunspot via NASA Sun Science Our satellites tracked this sunspot for nearly two weeks (July 5-17). It put on a show during its 13-day trip across the face of the sun, producing several solar flares, a coronal mass ejection and a solar energetic particle event. https://go.nasa.gov/2v357pO | NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center

🚨 Solar Flare Alert: Sunspot AR3883 Unleashes an X-Class Flare On November 7, 2024, the Sun emitted an intense X2.3 solar flare from active sunspot AR3883, peaking at 13:40 UTC. This powerful burst of radiation caused brief radio blackouts over the Atlantic. Fortunately, it appears the flare did not trigger a significant coronal mass ejection (CME), sparing Earth from magnetic disruptions. However, with Solar Cycle 25 in an active phase, more solar activity could follow, potentially enhancing a
