AR12736 Solar Flare, Singapore, new images added!

Post by yltansg »

The setup:
Image

This image was taken at 13:48 local time (5:40UTC) soon after AR12736 had unleashed the 3rd C-Class flare since yesterday.
Seeing condition was poor and there were many clouds. I am still struggling to get a good clean recording from this setup. So this is work in progress.

Nice capture, Alfred.

Just cloud and rain, so no chance of seeing anything on the Sun from here.

Thanks Alexandra. That photo was taken after the mount did a meridian flip at 14:07hrs. This is how it looked just before the flip at 13:09

Dear Franco, Eric, Marty, Pepe, Mark, Maurits and Stu. Thanks for your comments. This is how the active region looked today at 10:52 hrs local time (2:52UTC).

Seeing condition was better than yesterday, partly because I started earlier.
