Hi Rainer,

Thanks for the beautiful disks. How do you adjust/rotate your camera to get the right orientation for the disk?

I might see a couple of pores in your WL image Rainer. They are not as evident in your WL image as in the SDO continuum one. But pores do change, appear and disappear often rapidly. The larger sunspot imaged very well and the granulation is very apparent.

That is a real beauty Rainer, but activity is lower than of recent :bow :hamster: I was thinking that NHSA is northern hemisphere south America but then Mexico is in north America so that doesn't fit ;)

Alfred, we had a long discussion here (Solar reference library) viewtopic.php?f=7&t=28249

Hi,

Thanks for the SPoD. :oops:

Alexandra I knew you would be the first one to ask what is NHSA. NHSA comes from a comment somebody here in Mexico made about the looking of my Observatory interior and he said it look better then a Space Agency place.

SA = Space Agency

So what is NH ?

Well I live in the state of San Luis Potosí, Central Mexico, where a plant called Nopal is endemic. What is a Nopal ? A Nopal, Opuntia Ficus, is a sort of cactus and we even eat the leaves of it as well as the Figs which grow on them. Cold in Summer refreshes a lot and there is a wide variety of this Figs. We here even take one for making an alcoholic beverage called Colonche ... Not much Alcohol and tastes good ...maybe maximum 5 to 6% like normal beer

Another speciality is Tuna cheese. Yes, cheese and it is made from the Figs. As you see we have some strange tastes :lol:

As I am on the hilly side of the Town I came up with

Nopales Hills Space Agency
