What is the average size of sunspots?
Sunspots range from as small as North America, to many times larger than the Earth itself. Sunspot *groupings*, clusters of many sunspots, can be simply enormous. Sometimes very large ones, dozens of times larger than the Earth, can be seen with the naked eye at sunrise and sunset. I remember seeing my first sunspots on a Boy Scout campout in 1979, at dawn. Dr.
