Astronomy
Fire in the Sky - Solar Observing Sessions
Take an intimate look at the sun's surface. Using a filtered telescope examine the surface of the sun for sunspots. A helios filtered telescope will reveal more solar detail, by allowing us to observe solar flares (the phenomena that causes the northern lights). Filtered telescopes are professional tools used to look safely at the surface of the sun.
