Hydrogen alpha - July 20th 2022.
Currently there is a beautiful prominence on the solar limb.
Earlier this evening I captured a few Ha images with the PST.
The Sun also has filaments, plages and sunspots a plenty at the moment.
All good news for the solar astronomers.
The phone camera I use is good at capturing prominences, but terrible at revealing any surface detail.
Time for a new type of camera I guess... Hmmm... I wonder!

Old typewriter Mars observation - 14/10/20
Recently found this on my external hard drive.
I've just realised I hadn't put the year of observation in the details.
Mars apparition 2020
I used to often type up my observing sessions on the typewriter. I will have to dig through my journals to find a few more to post on blogger.
