Warning
Never look directly at the sun with the naked eye or with a telescope (unless you have the
•
proper solar filter). Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result.
Never use your telescope to project an image of the sun onto any surface. Internal heat build-
•
up can damage the telescope and any accessories attached to it.
Never use an eyepiece solar filter or a Herschel wedge. Internal heat build-up inside the
•
telescope can cause these devices to crack or break, allowing unfiltered sunlight to pass
through to the eye.
Do not leave the telescope unsupervised, either when children are present or adults who may
•
not be familiar with the correct operating procedures of your telescope.
