What's Up with our Nearest Star, Our Sun?

 

I haven't updated on the Sun lately and I need to include Solar Observing in my weekly newsletter. I give a full update at this LINK over at EadsyAstronomy.  Let's just say one of these Sunspots is NOT like the others and is getting wound up really type! Learn what that may mean for us. Also, former sunspot region AR4294 and AR4296 will be rotating back unto the Solar limb on the left side looking at the image in the next week and become Earth facing shortly after that. As it does so it will be given a new reference number and learn what it's been doing IF anything while on the backside! 

I'm hoping next week to get some solar viewing and imaging in with my LS35 solar scope and my SeeStar S50 with the solar filter on it.
