MM#009 Default Target



Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has continued at low-C levels since the last 
message. Most flares originated from the target region 
NOAA 14507 and NOAA 14506. 14507 produced ten flares, 
the largest of which was a C3.7 event at 03:13 UT today. 
This region continues to show the emerging mixed magnetic 
fluxes in its intermediate portion and retains a beta/D-type 
sunspot classification. 14506 (N11W38, beta/D-type) 
generated seven low-C flares, with signs of shearing and 
additional flux emergence. Today, the target will remain at 
14507, with 14506 included if possible. More low-C activities 
are expected in the next 24 hours.
 
The position of NOAA 14507 on 16-Aug-2026 11:30 UT is:

N04W22 (355", -36")
