Unfortunately, it is very difficult to express how unnotable this active region is to someone who is not acquainted with solar phenomena. In short, the only reason there are articles on this active region at all is because NASA used it to demonstrate the evolution of sunspots (https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2017/two-weeks-in-the-life-of-a-sunspot and https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/nasas-solar-dynamics-observatory-watches-a-sunspot) resulting in other news outlets copying the story.}} ~~~~ Timestamp: 20210828073638 07:36, 28 August 2021 (UTC) Administrators: delete |
AR12665 was a 75,000 mile active region of the Sun's surface. It was active in July 2017, and is notable for the images produced by a NASA satellite. The active region contained "several solar flares, a coronal mass ejection and a solar energetic particle event."[1]
