Re: cak present and past
Some of them are cycle 25 - the spectroscopes like this delve deeper than telescope/filter setups...

Re: cak present and past
These are great!
but not quite dead, I am sure I can see some hot spots in the high latitudes of the south. I hope these continue to form and give us more cycle 25 spots even if they are short lived.

Re: cak present and past
Nice work
the area of plage in the middle is gradually dwindling with each rotation.
