MONSTER SUNSPOT

The biggest sunspot of Solar Cycle 25 is crossing the face of the sun--and it's a beauty. Or a monster. The primary dark cores of AR3014 are all wider than Earth. The entire ensemble stretches more than 125,000 km from end to end--almost a third of the distance between Earth and the Moon. These dimensions make it an easy target for safely-filtered backyard telescopes.
