SUNSPOT BREAKUP: Big sunspot 898 is breaking apart, sending shock waves
through the sun's atmosphere and radio bursts toward Earth. You can listen
to some of the radio sounds at http://spaceweather.com . The breakup does
not herald a major solar storm, but it does offer an opportunity to watch a
sunspot in its death throes--very entertaining.
