Location of Photo:

Date/Time of photo:

17/04 15.00

Equipment:

TS 480mm telescope, with a 5X barlow mounted, together with a Quark daystar H-alpha filter filmed with asi174mm pro

Description:

Our angry sun up close. There has certainly been good activity on the sun lately, and yesterday there was an opportunity to see a very large area with new huge sunspots. The picture shows the sun in H-alpha light, just above the photosphere - by looking at the sun in this light we can see how the sun is certainly not a perfectly round sphere, but that there is a sea of ​​activity on its surface. In addition, there were a lot of protuburances (ionized gas emanating from the surface). This area was certainly the most exciting to observe yesterday - the viewing often fluctuated quite a bit, and therefore i had to be patient when filming.
