Description
Everglades Astronomical Society presents the sun as you have never seen it before! Look through specially designed telescopes and safely view the sun. See sunspots and solar prominences, and if you are really lucky, a solar flare. • Educational materials including sundials that work will also be available. • Please note that directly viewing the sun requires specially manufactured equipment and should never be attempted with any homemade materials. Blindness would be the likely result. • Stay after the sungazing for an evening program and a view of the starry night sky through telescopes with the Everglades Astronomical Society. • Events are weather permitting. Call the park the day of the event for update.
