MM#009 Default Target

Dear Collaborators,

Target region NOAA 2955 developed a few more small sunspots just east of its large leader sunspot since the last message but most of them quickly decayed. 2955 was the source of six B-class events in the past 24 hours. The largest was a B9.3 at 02/24/02:54 UT. A C-class event is possible in the next 24 hour period.

The position of NOAA 2955 on February 24 at 15:00 UT is: N16E40 (Solar X = -601", Solar Y = 355")

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,
