This May 9, 2012 image of the Sun provided by the Solar Dynamic Observatory’s Atomospheric Imaging Assembly (SDO/AIA)shows activity at the huge sunspot complex, known as AR 1476(Upper-L), that rotated into Earth’s view over the weekend

This May 9, 2012 image of the Sun provided by the Solar Dynamic Observatory’s Atomospheric Imaging Assembly (SDO/AIA)shows activity at the huge sunspot complex, known as AR 1476(Upper-L), that rotated into Earth’s view over the weekend. It measures more than 60,000 miles (100,000 kilometers) across. The sunspot is crackling with M-class solar flares and appears to be on the verge of producing even stronger blasts. The sunspot’s “beta-gamma-delta” magnetic field harbors energy for X-class flares, the most powerful kind. Eruptions in the days ahead will likely be geoeffective as the sunspot turns to face Earth.
