VAONIS - Solar Filter (AC021)The Vaonis AC021 is a solar filter designed specifically for the Vespera smart telescope, enabling safe daytime solar observations. This filter allows users to observe and photograph sunspots, providing insights into the Sun's activity. By capturing images over days or weeks, users can monitor changes in sunspots, which can last from several days to weeks. Constructed from metalized foil with a dimming effect, the filter reduces the Sun's brightness to safe levels for both the instrument and the observer. When attached, the Singularity app's Solar Mode guides users through the observation process, ensuring safety and optimal viewing experiences. Key Features: Daytime Solar Observation: Safely observe the Sun and track sunspots, revealing solar activity. Solar Mode & Live Display: Utilize the Singularity app to observe the Sun in near real-time and capture photos directly. Time-Lapse Solar Tracking: Capture multiple photos over days or weeks to monitor changes in sunspots' activity and duration. Safety: The filter ensures safe observation by reducing light intensity, protecting both the user and the instrument. Guided Solar Observation: The Singularity app provides step-by-step guidance during solar observation. Specifications: Net Weight: 10 g (0.35 oz) Dimensions: Thickness: 0.6 cm (0.24 in), Width: 7.80 cm (3.07 in) Materials: Metalized foil, Plastic It's crucial to use the Vespera telescope with the AC021 solar filter when observing the Sun to prevent damage to the equipment and ensure observer safety. Direct solar observation without proper protection can lead to serious eye injuries or blindness.
