2020-11-28 - AR2785 & 2786 (HA closeup)

Post by JochenM »

An unexpected break in the persistent clouds late afternoon; leading to yours truly rushing his set up before the sun dipped down behind a tall building (that's the Belgian version of a palmtree ;) ).

Only managed to do the single wavelength, but managed to get some decent data before the sun finally dipped down out of view. My first view of AR 2785/2786 (hopefully some more to follow). The two spotted friends are still churning up plenty of activity by the looks of it. Filaments all over the place!

Setup:

80ED, Quark Chromosphere, Baader 35nm H-Alpha filter, IMX174.

Thanks for looking!

Thanks Dan/Alexandra.

I feel for you, Alexandra. I keep a bit of an eye on the European weather charts and the UK always seems to get the short end of the stick lately. Hope it improves soon!
