SPACE-SUNSPOT
This 03 June, 2007 handout image received from the NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory(SOHO) shows a current image of the Sun. Sunspot 960 ,at left, has developed a "beta-gamma-delta" magnetic field that harbors energy for powerful X-class solar flares. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA) forecasters estimate a 15% chance of such a flare during the next 24 hours. A big eruption could trigger ion storms, radio fadeouts and, possibly some spectacular auroras. From end to end, the 960 complex stretches 86,991 miles (140,000 km). AFP PHOTO/HO/NASA
