A rose colored sun captured on March 8, 2020 and processed today (Easter Sunday). The little disruption at lower left is active region AR 2758, identified by its reversed polarity to be a member of new Solar Cycle 25. Its appearance reminds us that activity, while still deep in the bottom of the curve, will return on the sun and on the earth too. A rosy and hopeful Holiday to all.
