High resolution AR1726 in white light -Brisbane 23 April 2013

Here is AR1726 captured with the ASI120MM CCD camera through a Tak Mewlon 180 F12 fitted with the Tak x1.6 Extender. At times I could easily see pockets of the solar granulation pop into view on the Notebook screen and this is the result of punching a 3000 frame AIV through AutoStakkert and selecting the best 300 frames.

The seeing was very variable with good pockets lasting 1 to 2 seconds scattered over the 1 min 49 sec recording.

I down sampled the 1280x960 frame to 1024x768 to tighten up the image quality and then took a full res crop to show a section of the original finished image.

Brisbane turned it on today, albeit for only 10 seconds.

Cheers

Dennis
