Details:
On 07-08-23 from my Manorville observatory, I imaged the large sunspot 3363. The average sunspot is about the size of the entire planet Earth! However, sunspots come in various sizes ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands of miles across (many times larger than Earth). Scientists measure the total size (area) of all of the sunspots seen on the sun every day to get a measure of how active the sun is. Sunspots are not permanent. They appear and disappear on the surface of the Sun.
Kind Regards To ALL 🙂
