then we go up a few scales to the size of Canis Major.

Thanks guys for the positive feedback.
I'm using a new data capture routine that gives a very accurate whole disk illumination.
Marc...the 3D capture might be very cool
An early morning-to-midday pair probably not would work as the fine scale structure of the sun changes quite a bit...as my h-alpha animations showed earlier....

hence I suspect it would require at least a trans-pacific baseline with two co-timed images....hummm...
