2、be undertaken.The great astronomer Galileo was among the first to make telescopic observations of sunspots. Sunspots are regions of extremely strong magnetic fields(磁场)found on the suns surface.A sunspot has a dark central core known as the umbra.The umbra is surrounded by a dark ring called the pen
3、umbra，where the magnetic field spreads outward.Sunspots appear dark because they are giving off less radiation.They are cooler than the rest of the suns Surface. Sunspots are frequently observed in pairs or in paired groups.The members of a spot pair are identified as the leading spot and the follow
4、ing spot.They are identified by their position in the pair in terms of the direction in which the sun rotates(旋转). The number of sunspots at any one time varies。A large spot group may consist of as many as 1 0 groups and 300 Spots across the Sun.The number of spots changes in a fairly regular patter
5、n called the sunspot cycle.The largest number occurs about every 11 years.At sunspot minimum，there are at most just a few small spots. The average lifetime of an individual spot group is roughly one solar rotation，which is about 25 days.The most persistent large spots，however，can survive for two to
