Sunspot group 1045 has developed into one of the largest and most interesting sunspots in a long time (well, years!). It is currently centered in the sun’s northern hemisphere and is well worth looking at before it disappears. As always, be sure to use proper solar observing techniques and equipment, and always be safe when observing the sun. Check out today’s image from the SOHO satellite.
