Event Details

On Saturday October 14th there will be a partial annular eclipse, we are entering a period of higher solar activity with more sunspots to see, and next year there will be a total solar eclipse, but how do you safely view the sun?  Can you use your telescope to see sunspots and other solar activity safely?  Enjoy a presentation from Jeffrey Hoeper which will cover all of these questions and more.
