Best Answer

Sun spots are just cooler regions of the Sun's surface, so they appear darker. A simplistic answer is that they are just a darker hue of the normal colour of the Sun.

A more detailed answer is that they are all different, depending on the visual perceptual property and who the observer is - as all observers will see a different value depending on their spectral sensitivity.

See the related link of a sun spot, and draw your own conclusions.

Visible dark spots on the sun are called?

We call them sunspots, but dark and cool are relative terms. A sunspot is dark only relative to the surrounding solar surface, but still intensely bright compared to your common household light bulb. It's cooler than the surrounding solar material, but still hot enough to vaporize a spaceship and anyone inside it in a fraction of a second.
