Ok, let's get started 😊🛰️

Most of You already know me, so there's no need to introductions.

I'll start with a megathread of my favourite satellite pics processed by me in 2024.

Various dates, most of them were taken by Sentinel-2.

Solar Flare Leaves Sun Quaking
📸 The first known sunquake, recorded by SOHO on July 9, 1996

Scientists have shown for the first time that solar flares produce seismic waves in the Sun's interior that closely resemble those created by earthquakes on our planet.

Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) in the early hours of 3 October, captured through the C8 with an ASI294mc and additionally with a Nikon D5600 and a Tamron 70-200 at a focal length of 130 mm. The #comet was also nice to observe visually and will hopefully brighten significantly. #astrophotography

I thought this is the one, but after checking it turned out to be my number 16, which I haven't posted before 😅
