WARNING!
Never use a Messier-Series Telescope to look at the Sun! Looking at or near the Sun will cause instant and irreversible
damage to your eye. Eye damage is often painless, so there is no warning to the observer that damage has occurred until
it is too late. Do not point the telescope or its viewfinder at or near the Sun. Do not look through the telescope or its view-
finder as it is moving. Children should always have adult supervision while observing.
