Sun FD in H-Alpha, CaK and Continuum 13th of May 2022

Post by arnedanielsen »

Dear friends,

Another quick session before morning meeting. Thin cirrus, bad seeing and no time to wait for spells of better seeing. At least I managed to capture three different wavelengths in about 30 minutes

FD image in H-Alpha using a Coronado 60mm/BF15 w/Beloptik ITF, stopped down to 50mm, Baader 35nm H-Alpha and ASI 178mm mounted on a SkyWatcher SolarQuest.
