The Sun and the Sky at Night - A Perfect Storm

 

Jolene's completed White and Red light Safety Solar Filter
used with the JPO's Seestar S30
to capture recent images of the Solar Photosphere.
 

" Our sponsor George Roberts was so pleased with Kurt's recent solar images using Jolene's bespoke filter that he uploaded one of the photographs to his and the BBC 'Sky at Night' Flickr accounts.

George received an email advising him that one of our solar images would be shown on The Sky at Night program to be broadcast on the 08 June BBC Four and subsequently made available on BBC iPlayer  -  'Space Weather: The Perfect Storm'.

I have included a short and relevant video clip taken from iPlayer but would recommend those interested in 'space weather', to view the whole program, which is both informative and interesting." -Joel Cairo CEO of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.
