More Solar flares!

Image credit SOHO/NASA

Sunspot group 875 has fired off a strong, M7.5 solar flare. Unfortunately the SOHO Lasco C2 and C3 cameras have no images from this time, so I have no idea if a CME was fired off or not. We'll have to wait a day or so to see if this flare is likely to produce aurora. Also drop into Sungazer for a video of yesterdays flare.

While you are at it, remember that there are currently no plans to replace the ACE spacecraft? Why not write in to ask for a new solar wind monitor.
