First of all you should have eye protection and then project an image of the Sun through a telescope or binoculars onto a white screen -- paper plates, walls and sidewalks all work nicely. On the screen you should see a bright circle of light. This is the disc of the Sun. Adjust the distance between the screen and the telescope until the disk is about the size of a small paper plate. The image will probably be blurred; focus your telescope until the circle becomes sharp. Using this method you can see considerable detail in and around sunspot groups.

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.
What are the dark and cooler spots on sun called as?
Dark spots on the Sun are called sunspots. (You knew that was coming, didn't you?)
Why do you see blue spots after staring at the sun?
Staring at the sun can result in damage to the retina, causing temporary or permanent vision issues. Blue spots or afterimages can occur as the eyes recover from the intense light exposure. It's important to avoid looking directly at the sun to protect your eyes from harm.
What are dark spots that appear on the surface of the sun called?
Dark spots that appear on the surface of the sun are called sunspots. They are areas of reduced temperature caused by interactions with the sun's magnetic field.
What the black spots show up in the sun?
They are sun spots. Sun spots are cooler than the rest of the sun. They have strong magnetic field and usually occur in groups or in pairs. When they are in pairs one sun spot usually means the north pole of a magnet while the other means the south. Sun spots can sometimes be bigger than earth. The eleven year cycle of sunspots is the number of sunspots increasing and decreasing again. Hope that answered all your questions about sun spots.

What color are sun spots?
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.
