Sun H-alpha: (HaT-203MM-SS.0.3)
05 September 2018 20:38
Life on Earth can be expensive, but it includes a free trip around the Sun every year.
UPPER LEVEL CHROMOSPHERE (false color & monochrome)
Centered on 656.28 nm H-alpha Line (C)
NEVER try to observe the Sun through any optical instrument that has not been properly equipped with a special device for SAFE solar viewing. NEVER look at the Sun with the naked eye unless you look through a solar filter that is proven and specifically designed for such purposes. Even the briefest exposure to unfiltered sunlight can damage your sight permanently. In this activity it is sufficient that a single incident happens to bear irreparable damage to our sight: therefore, we must be cautious and never take anything for granted.
