Members of the North Jersey Astronomical Group will have solar telescopes set up at the Montclair Farmer's Market on November 5. Join us for some spectacular views of the Sun. Solar filters allow safe viewing of amazing features such as sunspots and jets of gas called prominences. Weather permitting, telescopes will be set up in the parking lot of the Walnut Street Train Station at 25 Depot Square, Montclair.
