Sun Spotter is a wooden, folded-path, Keplerian telescope.  It provides a much safer and convenient way to view the brilliant light of the sun than other more common methods. By using a series of mirrors, the device projects a bright 3.25-inch solar image onto a 5-inch white viewing screen through a powerful 62mm diameter objective lens. In its perfectly curved cradle, the Sun Spotter is easily aligned to the sun in seconds, without the complication of telescopes, solar filters, and tripods. Unlike other ways of viewing the sun, the compact and sturdy Sun Spotter is convenient, easy to set up, lightweight and fun to use. And, because of its unique design, this kid-friendly instrument makes our closest star a safer subject of study by even the youngest students.
Use the Sun Spotter for viewing the sun, eclipses, transits, and for daily record keeping. Track sunspots as they appear, move, and vanish. Useful for group viewing, the Sun Spotter allows several observers to simultaneously see the sun’s disk and quickly trace the changing positions of sunspots and compare them on a daily basis.
