It's Looking a Little Spotty Up There...

[Apollo XX]

...if you got the means to view the sun, now is a good time. There's been dozens of spots for days now. White light viewing is cool, and I can only imagine what's going on in Ha. The image gives you an idea, but hardly does justice to the view through the eyepiece:

Great images, Mike. I had a chance to look today in the eyepiece, but the seeing was not as good as yours was yesterday apparently. But it was interesting to see all those spots!

[Apollo XX]

Thanks Andy! Yes, the daytime seeing has been atrocious lately. Well, I guess the daytime seeing is usually atrocious anyway. I can't remember the last time I've been able to use over 50/60x on the sun with any decent resolution. I still enjoy it though.
