Uh on ... in addition to taxing treasure laid up in heaven the Democrats have announced that they’re gonna levy a tax on magnetism.

Maybe I don’t understand the science, but there seems to be something amiss when you add all these statements together.
“it is facing away from us, for now.”
“as Earth moves around the host star, the sunspot could fire a solar flare right at us.”
“Future eruptions could be aimed at Earth as the sunspot turns toward us in the days ahead.”
So, facing away from us, but as the Earth moves around the sun, the sunspot can turn towards us in the days ahead.
Are they meaning 180 days? Because that’s half a year, and it would take that long for the Earth to move around the sun to get to the spot facing away from us.
What am I missing?

“However, as Earth moves around the host star”
Would that be called the Sun?

The sun rotates too, about every 27 days.

Sunspots twice the width of the earth are not unusual.

C’mon, NASA. You’ve been telling us for decades the “science” is “settled.” The Sun has no effect on Earth’s climate. The only variable is CO2 levels. So, nothing to worry about, right?
To: BenLurkin
There it is!

Also sunspots are notoriously transitory.
