If you mean the line at about 7-8 o'clock, I'm pretty sure that is the armature holding the eclipse plate in front of the camera. It is in almost all the other LASCO images Jamie B -------------------------------- Daily Quote What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

I have never seen that before in any of the photos, and so far not found an explanation of what it is. Does anyone know? I'm real sure that it isn't anything to worry about, or I wouldn't be the first to ask about it, but I'm not familiar with it, looks interesting and even a bit ominous. So, would someone be nice enough to enlighten me? I would provide a link, but I get the CME space weather on an android app from NASA, so I don't have a direct link to this photo. TIA! And Happy 4th!!! -Barrett _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Send messages to the list to Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com The Utah-Astronomy mailing list is not affiliated with any astronomy club.
