Summary[edit]

Description

A previously very active sunspot has reappeared around the Eastern limb - maybe it is still fizzy!

The sunspot shows the Wilson Effect - Its thought that the dark umbra is deeper in the photosphere than the penumbra so sunspots can look asymetric near the limb.

Equinox 120ED scope with Baader Herschel wedge and Skyris 274m CCD camera. Ioptron ZEQ25GT mount.
