Large Prom 16/12/2022

I took this image of a large solar prominence on late Friday afternoon. I was hindered by clouds but was able to get a 1-2 minutes clear patch of sky. The seeing was not that great in fact it was poor.



Taken with the Tak FS-60C double stacked with SM60s Coronado Etalons, 1.7x Tak module, Tel Vue 2x Powermate, BF30 and ZWO ASI174 camera.

I think that you are about right on the number of Earths that can fit along the prominence.
