Nine-Years Ago Today. Brown Booby hunting for fish. Viewed from the deck of the MV World Odyssey crossing the Pacific Ocean. (10-Jan-2016, Semester at Sea).

Silhouette of a Jet Transiting the Sun.

Today, while looking at the sunspots (we are at or near the solar maximum) I captured an image of a jet transiting the sun. This was with a Stellina automated telescope fitted with a solar filter. There was a lot of turbulence in the air today.
