Details:
Sunspot AR2781 on 11-04-2020, is the new large sunspot of Solar Cycle #25, was just coming around the Sun's South Eastern Limb,
its so nice to see the sun sunspot activity again! We have been in Solar minimum with long stretches of no sunspots,
but that is now changing and we should expect to see more activity. This new sunspot is 3x larger than the Earth and still
growing.
Giant sunspot AR2781 is crackling with solar flares. The strongest so far, a C7 class flare...and the sunspot is rotating
into view and will be facing the Earth for the next 10 days or so...so if it keeps throwing flares, we may get some Aurora
(Northern Lights)activity.
I captured from my backyard in Dayton, Ohio with my Bisque MyT Mount, Lunt 60mm/50F Hydrogen Alpha Solar telescope
and QHY290M Cmos Camera, 1.247ms exp., 641 frames stacked Registax6.
