[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 46778, member: 176362"] Im sure many folks know about that warning, but its worth repeating for anyone who isnt a regular sky watcher. And this is something special, so there will be more interest than normal. Eye damage would be immediate due to the heat focussed onto your retina.... Not nice. The safest way to look at the sun is to use a pair of binoculars and to project the image of the sun onto a piece of card. Tape a piece of thick papaer over one of the front lenses, then point the binocs at the sun. Place the screen behind the binocs, and you will soon get the image of the sun. [/QUOTE]
