The sunspots

As the sun becomes more active as we head to solar maximum we will see more sunspots on the surface.

up to this point there has been 88 consecutive days where over 100 sunspots have been visible


The sunspot below is massive, more than 4x the size of Earth. Sunspots can grow or decline quickly so its important to record the date and time photographs are taken
 

Domnt forget, dont look or photograph the sun without the proper solar filters otherwise you can damage your eyes or sensor on your camera
