Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at a very low level for the past 24 hours. Yesterday's target has been quiet and begun its decay phase. Today the target will switch to a new emerging flux region in the northwest quadrant. This region has produced two ~A1.5 X-ray events and emerged some bipolar sunspots (should be numbered as NOAA 12772 tomorrow). Additional A-class events are expected with a chance of B-class events in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on August 18 at 09:30 UT is:
N17W28 (400", 190")
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
