Scientists have fixed a coronal hole in the shape of a triangle on the Sun

A coronal hole in the shape of a right triangle is fixed on the Sun. This was announced on June 1 at the Laboratory of Solar Astronomy of the IKI RAS.

"Weak disturbances are forecast for the coming week on June 3, Wednesday. Their source, a small coronal hole forming a right—angled triangle (although check the Pythagorean theorem), is visible in the incoming images in the very center of the disk," the Telegram channel says.

It is noted that the background radiation on the flare graph remains at level C, indicating that some hidden activity continues, but there are no harbingers of strong solar flares. The increase in activity in the second half of May has almost disappeared.

According to scientists, at least four higher-level X flares have occurred on the invisible solar side during this time.

On May 26, Sergey Chumakov, Doctor of Sciences, educator and teacher, reported that a series of powerful flares on the far side of the Sun does not pose a direct threat to the Earth, but the associated emissions of solar matter can affect the operation of satellites and energy infrastructure. According to him, the group of spots itself, which is located on the far side of the Sun, cannot have a direct impact on our planet.
