Sunspots 1401 and 1402 made a surprise entrance onto the solar disc today, displaying energetic flares and activity. I was fortunate to capture 30 minutes or so of video (45 second captures) before the clouds rolled in and ended my imaging session. I can't wait to track this monster active region over the next 12 days. Hopefully we will see some expansion of these two active regions over the next several days.
