Giant Sunspot AR1944 Returns (as AR 1967)
Giant sunspot AR1944 has rotated back onto the face of the Sun, and has been renamed AR1967. It is still big enough to be seen with simple eclipse glasses and no magnification (no pictures, at 43 degrees C I'm not going to get my scope out).
The sunspot is still active, and may yet hurl some geoeffective coronal mass ejections towards us.
