Large proms 23-07-11 PST/DMK

[Dave Smith]

It was very clear early this morning but unfortunately now clouded over.

Managed to get this before the clouds. I also managed to view the Moon and Jupiter as well as the Sun before the clouds arrived. The bands on Jupiter were just visible. This was around 10.30 am.

This image was taken with a DMK21 through a PST with a TV 3x barlow.

In white light there was hardly anything visible - just two tiny sunspots.

Nicely done! Lucky you got some sun.... seems to be evading the north!

I predict skyrocketing sales of PSTs in forthcoming days...

Excellent stuff; good to see what my newly-arrived DMK21 can potentially do!
