Today we did participate in the Georgia Department of Education’s STEM Festival.  700 science students were bussed in from all over the region to particpate.  Many of them were able to see the activity on the sun today in visible light and H-a, which was spectacluar with the large number of spots and some beautiful prominences.  During the event I managed to take an image, but the scope was not tracking good, so i did not make a Prom image.  Here the sun from the STEM Festival with Active Regions 1312,13,14,16,17,18, and 19.
