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.

Why do sun spots appear dark?

A typical spot consists of a dark region called the umbra, surrounded by a lighter region known as the penumbra. The sunspots appear relatively dark because the surrounding surface of the Sun (the photosphere) is about 10,000 degrees F., while the umbra is about 6,300 degrees F. Sunspots are quite large as an average size is about the same size as the Earth.

Sun spots are actually parts of the Sun that flare up and out away from the Sun due to the Sun's great energy. These flares are huge, but soon cool some as they move farther from the Sun. When photographed with a camera, say, that is adjusted to the Sun's awesome brightness, the sunspot, being cooler, thus less bright, show up as black dots or black patches.

How you can remove dark spots from face?

== == Age spots are sometimes called "liver spots," but they have nothing to do with the liver. These flat, brown spots are often caused by years in the sun. They are bigger than freckles, flat, and many times show up on areas like the face, hands, arms, back, and feet. Age spots are harmless, but if they bother you, talk to a dermatologist about removing them. Also, a sunscreen or sunblock may prevent more sun damage.

Where are sunspots on the earth?

There are no sunspots on the Earth; SUNspots are spots ON THE SUN. They are "dark" (well, SLIGHTLY less bright) spots on the Sun that happen to be correlated with solar flares and coronal mass ejections. The number of spots on the Sun varies up and down on a cycle that is approximately 11 years long. We're not sure why. You can see today's Sunspot Number online at spaceweather.com.
