About this image

Here is a frame from a video I recorded today as a fairly distant aircraft crossed the solar disc. The sunspot group AR3500 is at lower right, and appeared to be showing interesting activity. Alas, a little while later it was blocked from view.

There are 255 frames of this transit, which I have not been able to make into a small enough GIF file to post here
