Hey, Space Placers! Close Up of Sunspots Credit: Greg Redfern Nikon P1000 With Solar Filter Back on land! The Sun just recently had a huge event occur on the side facing away from Earth and it was a good thing too as this event was more powerful than the Carrington Event . The Sun also delayed launch of Crew 6 to ISS because of solar events . Our star is heading towards solar maximum on its 11 year cycle so more events like these are possible. Sky Guy in VA
