How opportune was the talk last week on ‘sunspot maxima’? The presentation was designed to be topical and we were brought up to date on the history and science of sunspots, solar flares and coronal mass ejections only to experience a massive CME over the following days ending with spectacular auroral display on Friday and Saturday nights if you were in the right place !
