MM#009 Default Target



Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has been at a low-to-moderate level since the last message. 
The largest event during the period was a C7.0 flare at 11:28 UT today, 
attributed to NOAA 14082 (S11E14, beta-gamma/D-type). However, a flare 
from the target region NOAA 14079 (N08W45) also contributed to the soft 
X-ray flux. 14079 retains its size (1220 µh) and complexity (beta-gamma), 
producing eight additional low C-class flares in the period. Today the target 
region shall remain with NOAA 14079 with a focus towards its northern 
mixed polarities. Further C-class activity is expected over the next 24 hours, 
with a slight chance for an isolated M-class event.

The position of NOAA 14079 on 8-May-2025 at 11:30 UT is:

N08W45 (667",171")
