New spot on the SE limb

Post by krakatoa1883 »

The southern hemisphere seems so far more active than the northern one, another spot is turning into view and small short-lived pores appear in white light here and there on the disc. A large, beautiful prominence is visible today on the NE limb, I had the intention to image it better but today it's really too hot for staying outside...

this is the best I got from the used refractor (which is surprising, however, being it a f/5.5 scope used at full aperture...)

Hope it's not an already evolved H-class group...
