Sunspot the size of a giant: Scientists say it could rival historys most powerful solar storm

Sunspot: A massive sunspot cluster, almost as big as the one from the 1859 Carrington Event, now faces Earth. Scientists assure the public there is no cause for alarm, though bright auroras and minor tech issues are possible. This giant sunspot group, AR 4294-4296, is among the largest seen in a decade. It could return for another encounter around Christmas.
