Active Sun, August 20, 2025
After a slow, bumpy drive, I reached the top of Mount Kobau, just in time for Ken Hewitt-White's talk on Kobau Skies This Week. Colleen had the Coronado PST set up so, obviously, I had to take a peek through it and the prominences coming off of the limb of the sun were breathtaking. The first scope I set up was my 60mm Lunt and took this shot of the most active part of the sun that day.
