Jan 4: Solar Observing - 1

Astronomy
I bought myself a new Lunt LS60THaPT Solar telescope last month, complete with EQ3 german equatorial mount. Whilst I need to learn how to use it properly through the eyepiece, before expecting too much from attaching my camera to it, I couldn't resist taking some images with it. The results, after processing are not as good as I hoped but I am posting them here anyway. Hopefully the images will improve with more experience of the Etalon tuning and better image processing.

Above us only sky...

The glory of the 'heavens' above us are real, their starry splendour is visible to those who look up; but the glory of 'Heaven' is a sad delusion of human minds.
This is the personal blog site of an atheist astronomer.

Wise words

"In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time someting like that happened in politics or religion."
Carl Sagan
