Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at a very low level since the last message. The largest event of the period was an A9.1 at 1/20/17:42 UT produced by the target NOAA 12696. 12696 has decayed to a plage region, and the visible solar disk is spotless now. No noteworthy events are expected in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12696 on January 21 at 12:30 UT is: S12W49 (721", -146")
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
