Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people

Observing the Sun

Remember when John Miksits?  We were having a public observation of the Sun at Pleasant Acres Campgrounds in Sussex, New Jersey.  John brought his homemade Solar scope.  John is on the left in the photo, followed by Gene and Gail Faulkner (brought along 11" Celestron).  Some nearby campers came for the viewing.  What was the year John?

Remember when? Gene, I don't. It's funny, I searched for myself and this picture came up. Finally, I answer your question in text.
