I photographed the spectrum of the Sun on a smartphone through a spectroscope. I built the spectroscope myself and the piece of CD-R acts as a reflection grid. The spectrum is not very sharp, but many Fraunhofer lines seem to stand out from it, e.g. one Balmer line (hydrogen, ca. 486 nm), iron (ca. 527 nm) and sodium (ca. 589 nm).

I went through the observations of last fall and this winter’s solar storm radio telescope and noticed that there had been an M4.4 class burst in November. It appears on the graph at about 3 p.m. The roar disrupted radio traffic in the South Atlantic. In addition, the roar sent a corona mass discharge into space.
