Frank Garner and Theo Ramakers went for their first event of several, to Hard Labor Creek State Park in Rutledge. A number of home schooling parents with their children wanted to learn more about our Sun. They learned what the Sun is made up of, how the sun generates energy, and how the energy makes its way to the surface of the sun and can create Solar storms. They learned why sunspots look dark even though they are 6000 degrees. They observed some nice prominences on the Sun and there were a nice number of Sun spots to see and a few of the students did even take the time to draw what they saw . A demonstration of the relative size and distance of Earth’s orbit from the Sun concluded the event. Everyone enjoyed the session, having learned a little more about astronomy.
