MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
The target region is now numbered NOAA 2768. 2768 (A-type/alpha) has decayed somewhat in its leading sunspot. The extensive trailing polarity portion of 2768 has minor mixed polarities within its intermediate area. 2768 was the source of a couple of A-class events since the last message. The largest was an A4.5 at 07/29/05:04 UT. It's nice to see two numbered Cycle 25 regions on the visible disk. Minor events probable in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2768 on July 29 at 10:00 UT is: N26E70 (Solar X = -799", Solar Y = 385")
