and did Santa bring you that telescope you asked for ?

Happy Christmas everybody....

Thanks Geoff, The Lasco wide angle is fine, but the 4 filter images from the EIT are hidden behind a mist of noise.

Got ot this latest images address and click any EIT image "More 512 x 512" for a history"

This is for Mark G, I know how a maser works but what does it do in space? is it used for measuring distances to planets,from an earthbound radar station, or on spacecraft for peering through clouds on Earth, Titan and Venus

Does anybody know how to save a picture from stellarium, it's on a PC, I tried Ctrl S for a screenshot but nothing happened, I'm running version 0.10.2

Jupiter transmits radio waves that can be heard on an amateur radio telescope.

Some of the signals make sounds that the human ear can hear.

Listen to it here, I've heard it described as CREEPY.
