> Meanwhile, say forecasters, another big sunspot could soon appear near the
> sun's southeastern limb. The active region is not yet directly visible,
> but the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) has seen material being
> blasted over the sun's limb from the approaching spot.
>
> Major eruptions are possible from these active regions as they rotate
> across the face of the sun over the next two weeks.
Check the SOHO (http://sohowww.estec.esa.nl/) site for latest images. Quite impressive.
