Hydrogen Alpha Solar Prominence & Filament Time Lapse Animation (80 minutes) | Aug 19th 2018

Heya,

I had some time and did an 80 minute time lapse (captured every 5 minutes for 80 minutes) in narrowband 6562.8A hydrogen alpha of the chromosphere, specifically to watch the changes as the sun spins on axis, the prominences move, spicules shift, and the large filament floats around. Large files, full resolution, please allow time for them to load:

For some reason the forum has issues with images-as-links from Astrobin, the URL is in each one, just click it for the Astrobin image if you can't see it here (plus you have to, to watch it animated)
