Cheers for the welcome guys
, and cool that Comet Lovejoy survived! just so I can use the smiley... must be pretty
that near the sun... Don't suppose Comet Amy survived though.
We have to wait until 17:45 (E Aus) to get the next SOHO updates. It looks like periodically communication with SOHO is poor due to the loss of the high-gain antenna in 2003. Every so often communications are a bit more limited, and unfortunately now is one of those times (see wiki article and the sungrazercomets twitter feed). No such problems with SDO of course. Am looking forward to the next update of LASCO C3!
EDIT - oops, am still getting used to converting from UT to Aussie T
- SOHO's not online until 19:45 E Aus time, according to sungrazercomets.
