An amazing lift off (Disparition Brusque) this morning occurred on the Southern limb but it extended all the way up to an area on the NE limb as well (the entire liftoff can be seen on the Cerro Tololo site on GONG).  I did not frame to capture the northernmost portion and as a matter of fact, I was unaware of the lift off of the filaprom to the east of the main filament I was focusing on, but I caught it in the same FOV and discovered it after I started working on the files!  I did this in both positive and negative images to see if any plasma connections could be seen between the two prominences and there is a hint in the inverted version of some fine tendrils stretching from the filaprom on the SE limb to the large filament on the southern hemisphere.  Watching GONG it appears the activity started around 12:02 UTC and I started recording at 13:53 and finished at 16:53 UTC due to clouds.  I hope others got a peek at this activity!   Caught with the Lunt LS60T DS/Saturn-M SQR/Meade 2X Shorty Barlow  I'll also post links to the MP4 versions which are much smaller files.

You can also see some material falling back onto the sun on the very left of the frame!

Thanks Pat, glad you enjoyed it!

Indeed, that plasma was moving very fast and I wish I’d made the FOV just a bit wider!  That’s the thing with animations, you just never know what you will catch or just miss!
