facing sunspots

On 01/17/2026 09:54 am by Patricio Leon | Santiago, Chile

two principal sunspots plus two accessory ones make a fine arrangement in the solar face, the biggest one, AR4341, can be seen already with protected eye alone. There have been no energetic sunspots so far; the solar wind speed stays high due to a big coronal hole facing Earth
