Zusammenfassung:We present new millimeter-wavelength observations of an active solar prominence. Observations made over a two-day period with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii, give a unique view in 1.3 mm radiation of the spectacular prominence that appeared on the west solar limb in the total solar eclipse of 11 July 1991.
