Details:
The sunspot complex of active regions AR2565 and AR2567 imaged less than one hour ago in excellent seeing conditions for my locations. My best capture of the whole group, that is going to disappear behind the limb in a few days.
Optimal resolution on the photosphere granulation for my Newton, never observed before in such detail. The evolution of the two bigger sunspot continues, while the third on the right remains almost unchanged.
The single cores of the spots are as big as our whole planet Earth, and the entire complex is more than 12 Earth diameters long, to give an idea on the structure dimension! The seeing today nearly made me crazy, with a single moment in a whole hour of imaging when the image went almost completely still and perfect for the capture.
