Scientists have shown a new active area on the Sun
Active region 4246 on the Sun has completely moved to the Earth-facing side, followed by another large area that may become the new "queen of the ball." This was announced on November 1 at the Laboratory of Solar Astronomy at the Institute of Space Research (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
"Active region 4246 has completely reached the Earth—facing side of the Sun," the laboratory wrote on its Telegram channel.
A video was also posted showing an active region on the surface of the star.
"The loops at the bottom are no longer 4246. It's following the queen of the ball that the second giant area comes out. Who knows, maybe she will become the real queen," the scientists clarified.
Earlier, on October 27, the Laboratory of Solar Astronomy at the IKI RAS reported that a space object taken over Moscow could be an asteroid. It was specified that the object's speed reached from 14 to 30 km/s, which is typical for asteroids. At the same time, the flight path presumably passed 350-700 km north of the capital. Later it became known that fragments of the meteorite fell in the vicinity of the settlements of Borovichi, Maksatikha, Pestovo, Udomlya. Parts of the fragments could have reached the M-11 Moscow—St. Petersburg highway.
All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
