Solar activity is low but the sun still managed to launch a CME into space. On this occasion it does not seem to be heading our way. The filament erupted from the south west of the star.
Todays sunspot number is 55. This is low considering we are heading towards the solar maximum.
NOAA predicts a 0.5% chance of an M class flare today and a 0.1% chance of an X class flare.
