Humongous prom on display

Get your h alpha scope out and have a look

It's awesome

The sun is so active these days... It's always doing something

Best observing since I bought a PST years and years maybe 6 years ago?

wow thanks for the heads up

ok here it is at 11:15am and it going - just vanishing? is that due to the tuning or is it really breaking up that quickly? there is another prom forming about 90 degrees away from this one - it seems to be rising quickly?

Yep that was it

I got clouded out and then had to somewhere for lunch, but it was rapidly changing

Unlike most other astro solar observing is so dynamic... And unpredictable you never know what you are going to see each session

It was still there about an hour ago, but the clouds have rolled in here...
