How to Observe the Sun Safely

How to Observe the Sun Safely

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The Sun is the closest star to Earth, and the only one we can observe in any sort of detail. As such it is a fascinating field of study. It also has the practical advantage, unlike every other astronomical object, of being visible in the daytime! After an introduction to the Sun as a star, the book concentrates entirely on practical aspects for amateur observers: the equipment needed, how to set it up, how to record observations, and how to image the Sun with conventional or digital cameras.
