August 11th Sun - a few angles
Posted: Sun Aug 11, 2019 10:45 pm
Hi all...
I was hoping for a more productive session today, but between clouds and computer shut down after a couple of full disk images and an attempt at some higher res shots.
Visually, the disk was pretty much blank in the LS80T/DSII/B1200 scope. I made separate disk and limb exposures to create the composite image below (limb inverted). There were a few small proms and small filaments, as well as a bit of an active prom around the 1'clock position where there is small disconnected piece floating above the lower parts of the prom:
I was hoping to pick up the proms in more detail but only managed to get a two frame mosaic of the northern part of the disk (poorly matched image quality). There are a few small bright regions and a little tuft of a filament, but this was the last of the frames captured:
Fro a different angle on the sunlight, I have attached a few images taken last night through the C14...Jupiter through an IR pass and Methane band filter and Saturn in the IR as well:
The jetstream was over head and although the previews looked good, the stacked images are not what I was hoping for.
