I took a photo of the Sun today using a small telescope (see attached photo).

The dots near the center are all active regions of magnetic activity called AR 3615 (AR means Active Region).

There are some other ARs on the face of the Sun in this image, you can see them if you zoom in.

There's a lunar eclipse tonight at 3:12am, eastern time. Although it's a full moon, it'll appear to be a half Moon because the Earth's shadow will be on it then. If you're up then, maybe step outside for a minute - it'll be low in the southern sky on the east coast. I'll try to get up and take some pics.

It's day 5 of taking Vraylar - no changes yet. No tiredness or appetite changes so far. Still feeling low but that's not new.
