Five Numbered Sunspot Groups
On 08/30/2026 10:51 am by Victor Rogus | Website | Sedona, Arizona, USA
Barley visible to me through fair skies we see five numbered sunspot groups on the solar disk this morning. And that all of these sunspots have quiet, stable magnetic fields.
103mm Jaegers refractor, Baader Planetarium safety prism, using neutral density and a solar continuum filter, Losmandy GM-8 mount. Cannon 80D camera. 650 FL 25 mm Clave eyepiece. I am proud of this dedicated solar telescope as I made it myself around a used Jaegers objective lens, bought on e-bay that had damaged coatings. A Moon Lite focuser, a Baader Planetarium Herschel Wedge. It has become my favorite telescope for sunspots!
