The Solar Telescope - AstroMedia
Pre-cut AstroMedia cardboard kit for a 6.5x magnification Galilean telescope for safe solar observation.
A Galilean telescope with a first-class solar filter; it couldn't be easier!
This die-cut cardboard kit quickly turns into a pair of 6.5x magnifying binoculars with a CE-approved solar filter that allows you to safely look directly at the sun's disk. Without the filter, you can use them to project the sun to a size of just under 3 cm or simply to observe nature.
WARNING! Never look at the sun without protection!
