2021-02-04 A bland sun after a long drought

Post by JochenM »

After not having seen the Sun since December 18th (not uncommon during the winter here), it finally made a very brief appearance again today. The window didn't last long so I was only able to get a quick CaK disk in; but happy enough to finally get the chance to do something again.

Looking at the current state of the disk; I'm not missing much though :)

Setup: 80ED (stopped down to 60mm), Lunt CaK b1800, IMX178.

Thanks for looking.

Welcome back to the land of Sun-gazing Jochen.

Yes other than that little AR on the far NW, sleepy-Sun is not awakening today...

Thanks for sharing
Terry

Hi Jochen,

Well done and yes not much there. Normally CaK reveals early when something is going on.


regards Rainer

Thanks Terry/Rainer.

The Sun can wait a bit until spring comes around here (better weather); no worries.
