  • Sunspot 1520 harbors energy for X-class solar flare

    Sunspot 1520 remains a large sunspot cluster and may produce isolated M-Class and X-class flares. Aside from the pocket of sunspots in the southern hemisphere, the remainder of the visible solar disk is currently spotless. AR1520 stretches more than 140,000 km (11
