Today’s H-alpha image shows extensive arches of sun-stuff along the W-NW solar limb. There is additional if less dramatic activity along the SW and NE solar limbs.

Below, the sunspot image now shows ten active regions. The latest, AR4132, emerging from the sun’s eastern limb, is subtle. AR4130, visible yesterday, has disappeared, and AR4124 is becoming too faint to see in my instrument.

The largest prominences are showcased in the gallery below.
