Space Weather News for May 28, 2003

SOLAR ACTIVITY: Big sunspot 365 unleashed a series of powerful X-class solar flares on May 27th and 28th. At least one coronal mass ejection(CME)appears to be heading toward Earth. The CME could trigger auroras when it sweeps by our planet later this week. The sunspot itself is big and impressive; you can see it using safe solar projection techniques.

HOT COMETS: A pair of comets swung perilously close to the sun on May 23rd and 24th. A new SOHO movie shows what happened.
