MM#009 Default Target

[Max Millennium Chief Observer]

Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has continued at low levels since the last message.
Yesterday's target region NOAA 13257 (S23E20, beta/C-type) was
quiescent in the past 24 hours. The largest event was a C2.6 flare
at 03/22/19:07 UT from NOAA 13259 (S22E13, beta/B-type), which
also produced two C1 flares and one high B-class flare during the
period. 13259 is emerging negative fluxes. Today the target shall
switch to this region. If possible, please also include the neighbouring
NOAA 13257 and 13256 (S22W00) in your field of view due to their
closely connected magnetic loops. Further C-level activities are
expected, with a slight chance for a low M-class flare over the next
24 hours.

The position of NOAA 13259 on 23-Mar-2023 at 12:30 UT is:

S22E13 (-201", -253")
