MM#009 Default Target



Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has turned back to a low level since the last message.
The largest event in the period was a C5.3 flare at 21:19 UT yesterday
(7/16) from the target region located on the Southeast limb.

A small sunspot rotated from the Southeast limb (S11E54) was assigned
the number, NOAA 14491, but the recent flare activities appear to
have come from the plage region extending close to the limb.
In the next 24 hours, we will continue to monitor this plage region
on the Southeast limb, expecting additional C-class events with
eruption.

The position of the target 17-July-2026 at 16:00 UT is:
S11E83 (-918", -200")
