Ca-K disc, AR & prom, April 2-3

Post by krakatoa1883 »

Spring has arrived, finally, and temperatures are rising, hope this damned virus can find the climate increasingly uncomfortable...

CaK dics is of yesterday in very poor seeing, today was better but still not steady. The flame-like prom on the E limb is still persisting.

Regards & stay safe
