Space Weather News for Saturday, June 7th<br />http://spaceweather.com<br /><br /><br />BIG SUNSPOT: Sunspot 375 has grown impressively during the past 24 hours.<br />It now stretches nearly 10 Earth-diameters from side to side and has<br />developed a twisted "beta-gamma-delta" magnetic field, which poses a<br />threat for X-class solar flares. Any explosions from its vicinity during<br />the next few days would likely be Earth-directed. This large spot is easy<br />to see, but never stare at the sun! Use safe solar projection techniques<br />described at spaceweather.com.<br /><br /><br />DAYLIGHT METEORS: The annual Arietid meteor shower, which peaks this year<br />on June 8th, is a strange one: it happens during the day rather than at<br />night. This makes the shower remarkably hard to see. Nevertheless, sky<br />watchers sometimes spot bright Arietids slowly skimming Earth's atmosphere<br />just before dawn--a rare but beautiful sight. Be alert for a sprinkling of<br />such meteors on Sunday and possibly Monday morning.
