Solar Viewing

Weather permitting, viewing of the Sun’s image in three different manners (indirectly onto a white surface, directly with safely-filtered optical light and directly in hydrogen-alpha wavelength) will take place. During this time the Sun will be in the constellation Virgo at a maximum altitude of 57°. Protective clothing and sunscreen are recommended. [For ages six and older. No admission fee.]
