My Coronado Personal Solar Telescope continues to shine. I've used it every day since Monday and have had some great H-alpha views of the Sun and chromospheric phenomena including many prominences, some sunspots, plage, and filaments. One very long filament provided a unique 3-d perspective as it neared the leading limb on Wednesday. On Friday I caught a loop prominence. Today I took the PST to the annual ASH picnic. Everyone there was suitably impressed.
