Sun Sunday November 14, 2021

Post by ffellah »

Hello all: today a nice day, cloudy. I thought I would give it a try anyway, there was a brief window with less clouds between 9 and 9:30AM. AR2894 was the main feature but AR2895 was also there, rather large, with no sunspots. A few proms were giving a good show. All considered, not a bad short session.

Franco,
Your images show up those filaments so much better with so much more detail than my low powered visual views did today.

Hi Franco, excellent captures through the murk and especially the first sky-view, where clearly a halo is nearly visible too.
Not sure what the blue thing is above the tree and just within the halo, but could be a reflection of something ??

Thanks for sharing
Terry

Excellent images, Franco.

Funny story about such a reflection. On the internet some was questioning if this (on their video) was evidence of another planet. Apparently it created quite a debate.

Thank you, Stu. Now that I REALLY think about it, it could have been Vulcan, Planet X or an alien spacecraft.

I'm not sure about your attached image Franco, but could it actually have been something to do with the Ruskies blowing-up one of their own and now consequently devastating the areas around the satellites... ??

Sorry, Terry, I should have been more specific.

The blue round dot in the sky may have been an alien spacecraft similar to the round one in the picture.... you were mentioning UFO's

Franco :lol:
