MM#009 Default Target



Dear Collaborators,

Solar remains at a low level. Since the last message, a partially occulted M2.5 flare was produced from a currently unnumbered active region beyond the southeastern limb at 04:03 UT today. This region was also the site of several further occulted flares in previous days. Due to the activity associated with this region, the target region will now switch to the southeastern limb around the site of the M-class flare. Further activity is expected from this region as it begins to transit onto the disk. 

The approximate position of the Target Region on 16-February-2026 at 12:30 UT is:

S09E84, (-954",  -139")
