| Sunspot sunspot is an area on the Sun's surface (photosphere) that is marked by intense magnetic activity, which inhibits convection, forming areas of reduced surface temperature. They can be visible from Earth without the aid of a telescope. Although they are at temperatures of roughly 4,000–4,500K, the contrast with the surrounding material at about 5,800black body (closely approximated by the photosphere) is a function of Telectric arc.
