<br /> <p>A sunspot has rotated into view on the sun and appears to be growing quickly. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured video of the magnetic field on the sun from July 5-11.</p><p>Sunspots are common, but are less frequent in the “solar minimum,” a period of low solar activity during the sun’s 11-year cycle, according to NASA. The sunspot in the video is the only one to be pinpointed at the moment.</p><p>While the sunspot appears small, NASA said the dark core is larger than Earth.
