Solar Cycle 25 Stirs & Mercury Crosses the Sun | Space Weather News 11.07.2019

This week the action is all about the Sun! Not only have we had several bright regions grace the Sun's face this past week, but one of them was a sunspot from the upcoming Solar Cycle 25. This sunspot (2750) even fired off a few low-level solar flares before receding beneath the Sun's surface. In addition, we may have yet another Solar Cycle 25 bright region on the Sun's farside as seen by STEREO. However, it will be a few days before this region rotates into Earth-view so we will just have to wait until we can take a closer look. Meanwhile, on November 11, we will have yet another treat passing across the Sun's face and that is the rare transit of Mercury! This passage will coincide with some fast solar wind hitting Earth, so field reporters at high latitudes might be enjoying Mercury's transit by day and an aurora show at night! Learn more about the transit of Mercury like when and where you can watch it, what these new bright regions are all about, and see what else our Sun has in store this week.
