Sol in H⍺ - 19 March 2022

[Hughsie]

A small selection of images of our star captured on 19 March 2022.

Image 1 - The full solar disc revealing AR12971 on the west side of the disc (left), AR12967 and just to the east is AR12965 slowly drifting from view. Some nice filaments could be observed on the Chromosphere.

 

Image 2 - A close up of AR12965. The day before this was classified as FAO and contained 6 sunspots. This morning it was classified CAO and its sunspot count had reduced to 4. Having previously produced an M2.0 solar flare on 14 March it has diminished in size but still managed to produce a class C2.1 flare later this day.

 

 

Image 3 - The whole ‘gang’. From west to east (left to right) we have AR12971, AR12967 and AR12965. AR12971 is a small active region comprised of a single spot and classified AXX. It has not yet produced any flares. AR12967 is similar in size to AR12971 and also has a single spot, same classification and has not produced any flares at this time.
