[QUOTE="Stavros Kiri, post: 5826799, member: 593167"] I am picking this up as a continuation and extension of the idea laid out e.g. in [USER=283516]@davenn[/USER] 's thread [SIZE=4]"The Sun today - 9 July 2017 - nice spot group" [URL]https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/the-sun-today-9-july-2017-nice-spot-group.919696/[/URL] See also (for continuity purposes): [URL]https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/the-sun-today-9-july-2017-nice-spot-group.919696/page-2#post-5825645[/URL] But the idea here is extended not to just one day or around that time, but to monitor the Sun's activity and Space Weather over time, beginning right after the Eclipse (in the US) of Aug. 21, 2017. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to post valid updates for noticed significant solar activity and space weather facts and events, including personal or otherwise photos, videos etc., as long as they are valid. That also includes quoting appropriate [PF accepted] articles and sources, and other valid means of correct relevant imformation, or scientific news and updates on the field. Currently there are still two significant Sun Spot groups, that acquire the names "group region 2671" and ".. region 2672". Here is a view of the Sun today 22 Aug. 2017, one day after the eclipse: " [ATTACH=full]209549[/ATTACH] [SIZE=4][B]Sunspot regions[/B][/SIZE] On this page you'll find an overview of all the visible sunspot regions on the Sun together with their properties, images and the chances on solar flares or proton events.
