Possible Active Region SE Limb 17/05/2020

Post by Martin_S »

It looks like an active region is developing on the South East limb.
Here are two Images in WL and H-alpha.

Just as confirmation: At 8 o'clock and 10 o'clock there are disturbed areas with pale patches.
Sorry my images are so awful: It has clouded now over so I can't improve on them.

I am awaiting the clouds to part to see if I can see them. No luck yet.

Hi
good imaging
my two cents on this unnumbered AR appearance on NE limb, but it seems to be spotless
although I've not matched CWL on the left near AR, nice spicules are visible
