ALL SIZZLE, NO SUNSPOT: We expected a sunspot. Instead, we have plage. French for "beach," plage is the bright magnetic froth that surrounds many big sunspots. In this case, however, there is no sunspot: [ link to spaceweather.com (secure)] This frothy network of white-hot plage is emerging over the sun's northeastern limb underneath a canopy of sizzling magnetic arches. Usually, such a canopy would herald an active sunspot group. So far, however, no dark cores are visible. Officially, the sun remains blank and spotless for the 32nd consecutive day--a sign that Solar Minimum is still underway. [ link to spaceweather.com (secure)] Quoting: Simple27 followed SS and his sun reports for years. It's awesome to have you guys around to keep things going.Nin was always a good reporter. You guys are good people with good minds and I look forward to following you guys again
