AR2838 EXPLOSIVE ACTIVITY - CONTINUES

Post by EGRAY_OBSERVATORY »

:bow
It is very likely that the X-Flaring AR2838 is the source of a massive-flare whilst it travels across the far-side of the Sun.

This AR is due to return in about a week at the N.E. Limb and could well give us another display of its' action (albeit with a new number)... :?:

https://www.spaceweather.com/ of today's date 15 July'21 has the full story...
