Task · part of 8. One observing project of six: approved AND guided by your counselor

8(f). Observe online, through something like SkyNet

Optional May not apply

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Requirement 8: which observing project, and has your counselor agreed it?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

With your parent or guardian's approval AND your counselor's: planets, comets, galaxies or the Sun, and describe the experience. The route that works when your own sky does not, and the one where the Sun can be observed without the risk requirement 1(d) is about.
