By common consensus this Rule was struck down in the meeting where we realised that this game does not have 42 Rules.

Last week I observed and photographed a feature within our solar system that I had not previously witnessed.

What did I photograph?

A red dwarf

Edited: forget that guess, I just re-read your question and noticed it says "within our solar system". So my guess is the ISS.

No, I have seen that many times with the naked eye. What I witnessed was through a telescope.

No, but [clue incoming] you have correctly deduced that the "feature" I witnessed was a phenomenon rather than an object.

It isn’t my turn, so I can’t guess a solar flare. So I shan’t.

Derek will surely have seen solar flares before.

But still, was it a solar flare?
