And we have Liftoff! 1/20/2023

Yep, she's gone. Here is an animation made from grabbing GONG images from Cerro Tololo site. Time from 12:04 - 13-19. What a spectacular lift off! Oh to have been able to catch this one!

It really was, and select some of the 48 hour videos from the SDO site and it is even more spectacular!

Nice GONG animation Warren. Spectacular!! I was hoping that filament would make it to the limb though to be seen as a prominence. Oh, well. It happens.

It would have been fascinating to see how far away from the disk that the plasma would have still been visible.

I was really hoping someone might at least catch a still of that monster leaving the surface but it happened so quickly that I'm not surprised.
