Today's Faint Proms | HA | Nov 7th 2018

Post by MalVeauX »

Heya,

Cloudy day, but the seeing was pretty decent for the hour I was imaging. I was totally cloud covered this morning, but I had some sucker holes around noon, so I imaged then and figured I'd test my luck on the seeing. Turned out to be decent. The prominences are mostly quite feint, a large one is very feint and I had to really pull it out to even see it, I almost didn't notice it on GONG and only started to see it when I was looking at the limb in high resolution in the scope and saw a feint protuburence that looked like it was lifting away. No active regions. Just a few smaller filaments and a filaprom floating on the surface.
