Which moon filter for daytime viewing?

[vincentnm]

Dear All,

I am organising a moon watch at a local primary school. The only problem is that it is at 14.30. At this time of the day, contrast on the moon will be poor.

What filter can I use to enhance the viewing experience?

Thanks,

Vincent.

Not sure about the moon. Why not just get a solar filter or a Ha scope for solar observation? The sun is quite interesting atm.

Keith,

The school already has a sun watch at 12.00. This will be followed by a moon watch at 14.30. Hence the question on a day time moon filter.

Thanks,

Vincent.

The variable polarising filter sounds like it may be the answer to your problem, it is a great piece of kit: First Light Optics - Variable Polarizing Moon Filter
