hamateur 1953 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 (edited) I have seen it three times now. Actually it is even still visible in the recycling loop run of the M 9 from yesterday on the main pg at SW.c. I’ve come to call it Inkus Obscurus until a better explanation is given, it seems appropriate. Tnx.

Solution Popular Post Marcel de Bont Posted February 11 Solution Popular Post Share Posted February 11 This is what happens when Earth comes in between SDO and the Sun once a day. This occurs around the equinoxes every year. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamateur 1953 Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 I have seen this in different form before but never integrated so perfectly with an event! Great timing and tnx for quick reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel de Bont Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 By the way, the blurry edge of the object (Earth) in the frame you provided is that way because of our atmosphere. If the moon comes in between SDO and the Sun you will see a sharp edge because the moon doesn't have an atmosphere. Life hack. The planets Venus or Mercury will look like tiny tiny dots. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamateur 1953 Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 (edited) I’ve viewed the transit of Venus some time back ( very cool ). And recently the hunk of rock we called Phobos by our mast cam. Just more obstructions to our view of Active Regions to contend with. My pet Humbolt squid Beatrice will be relieved she has no more competition. 🤣Tnx @Marcel de Bont Edited February 11 by hamateur 1953 Chuckled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamateur 1953 Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 (edited) Another kinda humorous thing last year was when NRC Penticton British Columbia was partially occulted by our moon during an eclipse of the sun. ( annular). I was aware of it naturally, being in the shadow myself. However SFI tanked down to 87 I think it was. Causing quite a few people to wonder if a mechanical or electronic failure had occurred or perhaps someone had turned down solar radiation for awhile. Haha.

Moon obstruction? 19 minutes ago, Members only said: Yeah what’s up with this lol Hi there: There are a number of possibilities that might cause the problem. Two likely reasons are data processing errors and telemetry errors. Data Processing: During image processing, if the data is not properly calibrated or if there are errors in the processing pipeline, it could lead to saturated images with a white background. Telemetry Issues: Sometimes, communication or telemetry issues between the spacecraft and ground stations can affect the transmission of data, leading to corrupted or saturated images. Other reasons could include instrument limitations and exposure settings. N. Edited April 5 by Newbie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
