MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at a very low level. The background x-ray flux is currently at the B1.6 level. The largest event in the past 24 hours was a B7.1 at 01/26/03:01. Its source was an EFR located at S11E51. Target region NOAA 1660 is the largest region on the visible disk but it only has a simple D-type/beta sunspot group and is slowly decaying as it approaches the west limb.
The position of NOAA 1660 on January 26 at 18:00 UT is: N13W79 (Solar X = 932", Solar Y = 235")
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.
