MM#009 Default Target

[Max Millennium Chief Observer]

Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity continues at low levels. Yesterday’s target NOAA
13472 (N21W82, beta/C-type) only produced a C1.8 at 13:46
UT on 4-Nov-2023 in the period. However, there were still a few
C1 flares from another region NOAA 13480, including a ~C1.3
flare at ~07:40 UT today, associated with a filament eruption and
a CME. This region retains a beta/D-type sunspot group, with an
increase in spot area. Today the target shall switch back to NOAA
13480. Additional C-class flares are expected in the following 24
hours.


The position of NOAA 13480 on 5-Nov-2023 at 08:30 UT is:

S09E49 (-723", -195")
