    Epic! Love it. The crescent Moon waiting for Metallica. Can't beat that! 😃

    Here's today's sun in H alpha though.

    Thanks! I was quite impressed by the prominences today. Not quite as noisy as Metallica but it always helps when the sun puts on a good show!

    Oh no, I missed the Jupiter-Venus conjunction this morning. Americans on the west coast, you may still see it just before the Sun rises. (Monday morning Aug 18)
