"The sky over the Jodrell Plank Observatory was peppered with clouds for the duration of the partial solar eclipse. We therefore considered ourselves lucky to get a couple of images from the day. The presence of sunspots on the solar disc was a bonus" .- Kurt Thrust current Director of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.
