To illustrate their similarity, Carrington's famous sketch (to scale) has been added to a picture of today's sun:</p><p>"How big is AR3664? Sprawling almost 200,000 km from end to end, it is 15 times wider than Earth. You can see AR3664 through ordinary eclipse glasses with no magnification at all. Moreover, it is easy to project an image of this sunspot onto the sidewalk or a white screen just as Carrington did in the 19th century.</p><p>"Carrington's sunspot is famous because in August and Sept. 1859 it emitted a series of intense <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SolarFlares" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SolarFlares</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CMEs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CMEs</span></a>. The resulting <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/geomagnetic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geomagnetic</span></a> storms set fire to telegraph offices and sparked auroras from Cuba to Hawaii. The '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CarringtonEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarringtonEvent</span></a>' has since become a touchstone of space weather in pop culture, with headlines stoking fears of an "internet apocalypse" if it repeats. Recent studies suggest that Carrington-class storms occur once every 40 to 60 years, so we're overdue.</p><p>"Does this mean we're about to get hit by another Carrington Event? Probably not. Big sunspots don't always produce big CMEs. Indeed, the CME AR3664 hurled toward us earlier today is puny compared to the CMEs of 1859. It won't cause much trouble when it arrives this weekend. Nevertheless, it would be wise to keep an eye on this growing active region while Earth is in its strike zone."</p><p><a href="http://www.spaceweather.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="">spaceweather.com</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
