Our Srar

Our Star
Its image is mesmerizing - out of this world - through a solar telescope...
A star full of life, willing to talk to you, sometimes through its carefree fairies (prominences), dancing at the disk limbs or its black halos (sun spots) and serpentine figures (filaments), crawling on its surface making any observer gazing at them in awe...

A fascinating spectacle changing every day without repeating the magic of the previous day...
This is what makes it a unique, worth observing celestial object by amateur and professional astronomers alike....

Solar Activity july 09, 2017...HUGE SUNSPOT AR2665 in WL


*HUGE SUNSPOT AR2665: Sunspot AR2665 has grown into a behemoth almost as wide as the planet Jupiter. Stretching more than 125,000 km from end to end and containing dozens of dark cores, the active region is an easy target for backyard solar telescopes. Amateur astronomer Peter Desypris sends this July 9th photo from Syros island, Greece.
