Dear Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is extremely low. The visible solar disk remains free of spots, and no significant flares have occurred since the last message. No change in flaring activity is expected over the next 24-hour period. The Max Millennium Program continues to support the 8th perihelion passage of Parker Solar Probe (PSP). The target is still the Northern polar coronal hole that is the model-consensus magnetic-footpoint location of PSP.
The approximate position of this region on 5-May-2021 at 23:00 UT is:
N53W72 , ( 544", 769" )
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.
Regards,
Shaun Bloomfield (Northumbria University)
