Fullerscopes Telescope Mountings

This blog has become my ATM design, build and imaging diary. I have recently built several new telescopes, a large equatorial mounting and a raised 10' [3m] dome on an octagonal building. Be aware that I deal with building solar telescopes. Which are potentially VERY dangerous! I can accept NO responsibility for any action not directly supervised by myself. You are NOT entitled to blame any other person for your OWN lack of skill or ignorance. You copy me at your own peril!

23.06.2022 Afternoon imaging

*

Friday 23rd Sunny afternoon 71F.

A superb filament and prominence [filaprom] overlapped the limb in the NW.

I captured lots of images but none were very satisfactory.

The seeing conditions improved slightly later:

17.20 [CET] Deliberately overexposed to show the filaprom and its position relative to AR3038.

17.56 [CET] AR3038. Complex multi-spot with filaments and some flaring.

18.20 Unnamed spot near eastern limb.

18.29 Filament and complexity in a disturbed area.

18.44 Last image of AR3038 worth saving.

18.52 The trees intervened. The seeing never really steadied as I had hoped.
