Solar Prominence Loop (High Speed)
This is a super video highlighting how dynamic Solar activity can be. This was originally recorded on May 24th, over a span of about 20 minutes. I compress down to only 40 seconds or so to encourage the watching the whole thing. It was a sight to behold on screen, over those 20 mins, as the original jet-like prominence started to morph and arc into a traditional loop prominence. Enjoy!

Sun White-Light Tour for 5/14/2013
Something a bit different from me, in a few ways. My 8" Baader film for my C8 ripped, so I had 6" one I used on my dob for outreach. Todays Sun is so spectacular for sunspots, I just decided to pop on that, grab my ImagingSource DMK21.04 camera, and hand guide some video.
AR1745 is gorgeous, with a huge penumbra area. AR1746 was also large and well defined. Add in a lot of smaller groups, and a great view for our closest star!

Watch Ep 75 Hangout - NEAF 2013 Best of the Web, Daves Solar System Record
Although I will unfortunately have to miss NEAF 2013 AGAIN(!) due to personal reasons, that doesn't mean we can speculate on what astronomical equipment will be the talk of the show. I give you my opinion on that, and a general review of what to expect at NEAF 2013 this year.
I’ve been dreaming of a piece of software that could show off the Sun in Hydrogen-Alpha with a monochrome camera, but in color. Well my dreams came true when I found Dave’s Solar System Recorder. I’ll give you a demo of this product, and showcase some of its performance on this episode of At The Eyepiece.
Show notes are now available HERE!
