Sunspots!


Last year we tried and failed to use our Galileoscope to see sunspots. There were two problems: there were no sunspots to see that day, and we had the telescope pointed the wrong way!

With news of the massive solar flares heading towards Earth this past week, I decided to give it another try. I read over the directions on spaceweather.com again and corrected our mistake with the setup. Success!


Go to my blog post on GeekMom to see how we did it.
