What Happens in a Solar Flare? Sunspot Update - A CME Took Place

    Solar activity increased a bit yesterday. Today its quiet so far but with the active regions on the disc
  we expect more flares during the next days.

    We noticed a CME today on Stereo images. This CME was not earth direced. It will not effect us in any way. Source was a eruption on the farside.
