INTRODUCTION

We thank you for your interest in DayStar Filters. Few experiences can match observing the dynamic force that exists in the chromosphere of our sun. DayStar is proud to offer safe, quality, easy-to-use filtering systems specially designed to bring this observing experience to you. DayStar Hydrogen a filters enable professional and amateur astronomers to witness the hidden dynamics of our sun. Our unique sub-ångström filter systems allow observers to explore many facets of solar research. Watching solar flares evolve above the solar disk, prominences swirling against the inky blackness of space, subtle plage and textured filaments sinuously traversing the sun add to the observer's viewing enjoyment. Smaller features such as spicules and intricate mottles change from moment to moment giving the impression of wildfire.

The more advanced observers equipped with DayStar Calcium K-line filtering systems may view and image calcium plage excited by emerging, existing or decaying sunspot groups. In Calcium K-line, plage immersed solar active areas will appear across the entire solar disc-not just at the limb. Prominences are commonly seen in the violet light of calcium during solar active periods. Observing active areas in Hydrogen a and calcium is a wondrous experience. It is easy to see that one will be able to expand solar programs toward new and more intense horizons. We are proud to hear that many consider a DayStar filter to be their most powerful observing tool. With a DayStar filtering system, observational programs are limited only by the desires of the observer.
