The active region AR3664 is one of the largest sunspot groups in recent years. It is also very active, given off multiple X-class solar flares over the past week. The sunspot group had continued to grow since it first emerged, and had showed complex structures. This image was taken one day before it turned over the limb, going to the far side of the Sun.
