SUNSPOT MONITORING REPORT (MAY 2017 – MAY 2018)

Regardless of the season, whether it is the scorching hot summer or chilly winter, Al Sadeem Observatory regularly observes the Sun in monitoring daily changes in sunspot morphology which corresponds to its dynamic activity with additional information about solar flares from the NOAA-Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC), and Solar Influences Data Center (SIDC). Here is […]
