The Sun on 04.04.2022. Solar activity continues, but no flaring is evident at the moment. NASA reports a potentially large sunspot group may be about to emerge over the Sun's southeastern limb. Below are pix of ARs 2978 and 2981, which are approaching the western limb of the Sun. Note the magnetic lines of force shaping the plasma around the dark spot area (the light area in the inverted image).
The trials, tribulations and small triumphs of a Charlotte, NC astronomer imaging under Bortle 8/9 skies.
