Nasa's Solar Dynamics Observatory Sights Sunspot Turning Towards The Earth by Nobody: 2:11pm On Jul 19, 2017 |
The timelapse video shows the sunspot rotating into the view over a period of forty two hours. The sunspot has been designated as Active Region 12665. The sunspot could potentially be the source of some solar flares, but it is too early in its formation to accurately predict what the sunspot will do. In April this year, the SDO captured a series of M class flares in rapid succession. Solar flares are classified into A, B, C, M and X categories, depending on the energy output of the flares. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNng0KrNUuI |

Nice view but that video makes Earth look woefully small. Smaller than a sunspot. |
