Images of the sun from Brunei, photos taken by Pg Shahdani, yesterday (21st July 2004). Seen on the photos is a massive sunspot (black) having about 10 times of the Earth’s size.

The giant sunspot seen on the photos is visible to the naked eye without the aid of telescope but a safe solar observing should be practice such as using eclipse shade, solar filter or using projection method.

The sunspots will remain visible within the next 5 days before dissapearing on the far side. I suggest everyone to make daytime observation of our active Sun.
