Session - 15/08/2023 ; Location - Horsens
Note: Some quick after-work solar observing
| Object | Observation type | Eyepiece/camera | Magnification | Filter | Note | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sun | Explorer 150PDS (f5.0) | Kellner (fov: 0.8°) | 50X | EMC SF100 size 7 solar filter + Red #25 | Loads of sunspots and penumbra visible around the larger ones too. A bit difficult to focus due to the heat in the atmosphere. |
|
| Sun | Explorer 150PDS (f5.0) | Kellner (fov: 0.8°) | 50X | EMC SF100 size 7 solar filter + Blue #80A | Same as with red filter, but it is brighter with this filter, but contrasts are also higher. I am able to see more details near sunspots. |
|
| Sun | Explorer 150PDS (f5.0) | Plössl (fov: 0.4°) | 125X | EMC SF100 size 7 solar filter + Blue #80A | Always fun to crank up the zoom level on the Sun. The details are so cool, and it is easier to focus on higher zoom. At least today. |
