Eclipse 2024

Nothing special, but this was about the max occlusion from our house. We were lucky to see something through the clouds.

Through a telescope with a solar filter, we could see several sunspots. The smaller one on the upper right (region 3633 at 120MH) is about the size of the Earth (170 MH), the speck towards the center is quite a bit larger (region 3628 260 MH).

The video was with the telescope and into my cell phone, not really fancy astrophotography, but still kinda cool to me. I liked seeing the clouds go by, so I thought I’d share.
