The Sun on May 28, 2024

 The Sun on May 28, 2024. The main sunspot group just off center are ARs 3699/3691. At the edge of the disk. AR 3664 has traveled around the sun, and is reemerging on the Sun's limb as AR 3697. Both groups have the potential to produce X-Class flares. I've also included a closeup of ARs 3699/3691, below.
