prominence 1/10/2024 21:11.3 UTC (1:11 PM local) |
working from home thanks to covid, saw a medium size prominence with a thick short/wide T-shaped structure below it, very bright in the morning. knew something dynamic was happening...brought my grab and go out at lunch and saw this huge prominence. later looked like medium prominence with an extension shooting out. happy to catch a glimpse of what was obviously a very dynamic process.

the animation was a challenge due to differing exposures and filters (double vs single stack) as well as field rotation.
My circa 2010 lunt solar scope had developed a tiny usable field. finally decided to "look into it" and found the blue blocking filter almost entirely covered by rust
10 bucks for a new blue blocker
and i've got a big clear field again 😎
