DANGER!
Never use a telescope for solar observing without a special filter! Immediate permanent damage to your eyes will occur
as soon as you are pointing the telescope at or near the sun. Since eye damage will occur faster than your eye lid
closing reflex and it is very often painless you will react too slow
– and the permanent eye damage will already have
taken place. Never point your telescope or the finder scope at or near the sun. Never look though your telescope while
it is moving. Never leave your telescope alone during the daytime without covering the main mirror. Realize that even
skew sun rays can be concentrated by the mirror and cause burns in the vicinity of the telescope, eye damage and fire.
During a observation children have to be supervised at all times.
