BIG SUNSPOT

BIG SUNSPOT: A new sunspot is rotating over the sun's eastern limb. It is still not fully in view, but we can already see that it is big.

Also AR2783 is growing. Potential for C-class flares.

“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.
