Public Solar Observation at Pilot Mountain State Park (Saturday, May 25 from 10 AM to Noon)

WEATHER UPDATE: This event will take place. Conditions are not ideal, but should be good enough to get some solar views.

FAS will hold a public solar observation at the Pilot Mt. State Park Visitors Center on Saturday, May 25, from 10 am to 12 Noon. Solar telescopes will be available to safely view the Sun and solar activity such as sunspots and solar flares.

See here for directions.


This event is dependent on the WEATHER. Clouds and rain do make it difficult to observe the Sun, so check with us on the FAS website (www.fas37.org) and Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/ForsythAstronomical/) for a weather update.
