Fantastic Views - Flare Loop


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Beautiful views again this morning, including what looks to me to be a lovely flare loop prominence I think coming from a bright active 'fissure'!  Seems to have a significant doppler shift going by my tuning to bring it (or at least the sides) out dark.  From Gong...

Update:

Looking at a movie on Gong, you can see it explode out - explains the doppler shift 🙂

Nicely spotted - I must have just missed this yesterday. Can’t afford to miss a second on the Sun at the moment. Whole disk is alive.

Yeah - I'm working a lot from home and just throw the scope out the back garden for the day, and I take the odd 5min break and take a peep if the sky is clear! 😎
