Today was my first real attempt to image the Sun's surface and a pretty large solar prominence. A huge thank you goes out to Marty for posting a really helpful YouTube tutorial on his Wise Imaging channel. I still have a ton to learn and practice at this form of imaging, but overall I think it was a decent first attempt.
The prominence is made up of plasma which is a hot blend of hydrogen and helium that's electrically charged. There's magnetic fields involved and when they become unstable they erupt outward to release the plasma.
