WARNING:

Never look at the sun with your telescope 

(or  even  with  just  your  eyes)  without  a  professionally 
made  solar  filter.  Permanent  eye  damage  or  blindness 
could  result. Young  children  should  use  this  telescope 
only with adult  supervision.
Avoid  using  the  type  of  solar  filter  that  screws  into  an 
eyepiece. They  are  susceptible  to  cracking  under  the 
intense  heat  that  builds  up  near  the  focus  point,  and 
could cause severe retinal damage. Use only the type of 
solar filter that covers the front of the telescope. Be sure 
also to cover the front of the finder scope with aluminum 
foil or another opaque material to prevent physical dam-
age to the internal components of the scope itself as well 
as to your eyes.
