Solar activity 13th jan 2022 - Mg (b2)

Post by Merlin66 »

Still hampered by strong winds but managed to get a reasonable MiniSHG image in the wavelength of Mg (b2)
All the current active areas and regions of faculae visible - AR 2924/5/6/7/8
plus these a bit of faculae up in the north east....

Ken,
This one certainly is sharper than your last Mg ( b2 ) images. I noticed the plage/faculae right away. The penumbrae of the sunspots can be seen a bit too!

P.S. Keep these less used " flavors " coming!!
