Groups of sunspots‚ especially those with complex magnetic field configurations‚ are often the sites of flares. Sunspot activity has been observed since the time of Galileo in 1610‚ with detailed records kept for over 200 years by specialist solar observatories. The temperature within sunspots is about 4‚600 K‚ and there appears to be a sunspot cycle that peaks every 11.1 years.
