Coronado PST, view the closest star to Earth safely!

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug. 20, 2012 - Solar observing is usually unknown or ignored to beginner astronomers. However, the possibility of viewing the closest star to our planet is now more accessible to the average astronomer. The Coronado PST is a well built solar telescope that is completely oriented for observing the sun and its features.

Coronado telescopes, including the PST have all their internal optics equipped for solar observing, so there is little need for additional solar optics. With a 40mm diameter and non removable internal optics, this telescope has a 1.0 Angstrom bandpass which is excellent for hunting down surface details. Among these include sunspots, flares, and numerous other fluctuations on the surface of the sun. If you are interested in one of these scopes, the best place to order one is Woodland Hills Camera and Telescopes at the following link:

We have also included a video demonstration of the PST to show amateur astronomer enthusiasts. This video gives a great explanation of how the optics work within the OTA and how they're unique to Coronado. We hope you enjoy this solar masterpiece and get prepared for solar maximum!
