That is such an awesome picture. It Illustrates just how many sunspots there were during one year of the solar maximum.
The periodicity of those spots (check out the bottom two rows) suggests that many of those are the same spot that persisted and just showed up at a slightly different position a month later. If that’s the case, the actual number of spots is maybe about one-twelfth of what we see in the composite.
Still a really cool picture, though.
