sunspots 4 july 2009
WOW there is a rather large grouping of sunspots. I found them quite by accident - was testing the c8 and thousand oaks filter before an school presentation on Tuesday, after all its been ages since i used the gear. At first i thought it was dirt of insect poo. After viewing through the c8 i put the 60mm lunt on the mount - wow huge prominences and the sunspot group was really apparent. looking forward to looking at them again tomorrow and hopefully it will still remain clear for Tuesday for Lambton Public School Astronomy day. plan on showing 340 kids plus parents and teachers view through the c8 and the lunt.
