Dr. Holly Gilbert from NASA discusses the significance of a massive sunspot, the largest in 24 years, and its potential impact on Earth. Sunspots are regions on the Sun with strong magnetic fields, leading to solar storms and Coronal Mass Ejections. These can affect Earth's technology by interacting with its magnetic field. NASA, along with NOAA, monitors sunspots using the Solar Dynamics Observatory and other missions. A new mission, MMS, will study solar flare processes. For more information, visit nasa.gov/sunearth.
