Fall 2001 Sun Project

  Viewing the sun directly with an Ha filter.         Finding the angle of elevation of the sun.      Observing a solar image with a
                                                                                                                                                                         "SunSpotter" TM telescope.


Tracing Sunspots:  Two drawings made using a "SunSpotter"TM telescope
were traced onto viewgraphs, then superimposed with an orthographic grid
to reveal solar latitude, longitude and rotation rate of the sun. The blue dots
are the Sept. 11 data, the black dots are from Sept. 13.
