21 This is a volunteer effort and people often ask, Why do you do this? The Answer: When someone (no matter what age) looks through the scopes and says, WOW. That s our Payback for lugging all our equipment, setting up, standing in the hot sun, and then tearing it all down. Timmy Telescope Solar Astronomy Outreach We hope that we ve introduced the public a better understanding and appreciation of the Sun--our closest star.
