Solar prominence animation

Post by Sergio Alessandrelli »

Hi to all

Here an animation of solar prominences from the last august. I used an Intes MK72 I’m planning to convert for solar use. D-ERF diameter is the Baader 135mm, so I had a lot of central obstructin, but experiment seems good 😉

Bye

Sergio

Thank you 😉

It’s my first experiment with this telescope using the ERF I’m using in the FLT132. With a good seeing it could be a good chance to have an higher resolution (with a full aperture ERF) without a long and complex refractor.

Bye

Sergio
