The Solar Disk as Seen to Me this Morning

The solar disk as seen to me this morning, displays six numbered sunspots. However All of these sunspots are quiet and pose little threat for strong solar flares. The big news is that: Europe's Solar Orbiter is monitoring a giant sunspot crossing the farside of the sun. After emitting a series of strong M-class and X-class solar flares on May 15-16, the sunspot has quieted. The sunspot turns toward Earth later this week and may become active once again.

103mm Jagers refractor, Badder Planetarium safety prism, using neutral tensity and a solar continuum filter, Losmandy GM-8 mount. Cannon 80D camera. 650 FL @ prime focus. I am proud of this dedicated solar telescope as I made it myself around a used Jagers objective lens, bought on e-bay that had damaged coatings. A Moon Lite focuser, a Baader Planetarium Herschal Wedge. It has become my favorite telescope for sunspots!
