You can observe the Sun from 0 to 30 degrees. The triangle shaped wooden telescope sits in a semicircle cradle. You can observe features on the Sun, in all wavelengths of light, as they would appear in a small refractor. It is reflected off of three mirrors into the 12.5 mm FL field lens.Ī 3.5-inch image of the Sun, magnified 56 times, is projected on to a white viewing screen. After you align it with the Sun, light passes through the 61.7 mm objective lens, stopped down to 57.0 mm. The Sunspotter creates an image of the Sun by eyepiece projection. A group of people of all ages can observe the solar image at the same time. Sunlight passes through a lens and is reflected off three mirrors and passing through an eyepiece that projects the solar image on to a small piece of paper. This unique solar telescope projects an image of the solar surface on a small piece of paper. The Sunspotter product is the safer solar telescope for observing sunspots. The Astronomical League has a Sunspotter observing award. You can confirm this rate of rotation and observe that the number of sunspots change over the solar sunspot cycle. The Sunspotter solar telescope can be used to safely recreate Galileo’s solar observation. However, there is now a safer way to observe the Sun. He could have lost his sight by observing the Sun through his telescope without a safe solar filter. Unfortunately, he lost his sight caused by illness. Therefore, the Sun was perfect, without blemishes. This statement angered the Roman Catholic Church during the Renaissance. However, his observation of imperfections on the surface of the Sun proved that the Sun was not perfect. SUNSPOTTER SOLAR TELESCOPE By Barlow Bob Galileo demonstrated that the Sun rotated, by observing sunspot movements.
