1 hour time lapse of AR3270 on 4 April 2023

[Averton (P and C)]

For the first time since December the seeing was consistent enough to try for a time lapse. Here is a 1 hour time lapse of AR3270 taken on 4 April 2023, starting at 00:25 UT (10:25am local time). Taken with K102 double stacked with a Solar Scout Quark and a Lunt 40mm etalon. ASI174MM camera. 10 second videos with a 20 second delay, giving 2 videos per minute. A total of 120 videos. Best 20 frames of each video stacked and sharpened.

Lovely animation of the dynamics of our Sun. Very impressive steadiness throughout the animation and superb detail, well done.

Cheers

Very nice animation! Was that some kind of ejection right at the end?

Yes it was the start of a small C class flare. Just photons.
It is a lucky dip when you setup for a time lapse, you are never sure what you are going to get.
