Details:
There is a very intense absorption line at 393.02nm and it is a neutral iron wavelength. Within the photosphere at this wavelength, very long filaments briefly align to the solar convection cell walls. These are the first ever examples of these recorded in the photosphere. This event was recorded in the year 2017 and I made a brief announcement and have been attacked publicly and shamed ever since then. People claim this is "impossible"- but there it is. I named them "ferrit's" because of the "ferrite" reference to neutral iron. You are more than welcome to participate in trying to record these things. Nobody else on earth has ever captured it on video. If you have an SHG, see what you can find. I seek to validate the finding because it is literally the first instance being documented.
