Yeah, I saw on tonight's news some auroras that were seen 100 miles south of where I live, which is usually too far north for that kind of thing. I'm a little annoyed at having missed them; I'd love to see an aurora. The night-time view from the [ant]arctic must be incredible right now. Cheers, - Dave David A.

Large Sunspot visible (USE SOLAR FILTER)
Hi, If you have a SOLAR FILTER check out the Sun it has a massive sunspot visible. I put a SOLAR FILTER and A2x-S on my F*300/4.5 and finished off a roll of Gold 200 in a MX-5n. Used various exposure compensations so may be okay. Will try and find someone to scan results if any good the will post them on my simple web page. *** * * *W A R N I N G* * * *W A R N I N G* * * *W A R N I N G* * * * DO NOT USE ANYTHING EXCEPT A SOLAR FILTER * * * * DO NOT LOOK AT THE SUN THROUGH A CAMERA OR BINOCULARS * * * *DO NOT LOOK AT THE SUN WITH THE NAKED EYE* * * * * *** HUGE SUNSPOT: The largest sunspot in ten years is crossing the solar disk. The fast-growing spot, called AR9393, covers an area of the Sun equivalent to the total surface area of 13 Earths!
