Our trip was great! We got a lot of nice footage in the mountains and had a lot of fun observing sunspots. It was really nice to be able to get out of the city to hike and participate in informal science learning. The Stanford Sun Lab website was a great resource for inexpensive and easy methods to view the sun. I’m bummed we didn’t get to see any sunspots, but I’m sure if I were to do the experiment again on a different day, I might get better results. I also really liked that our observation method was a very simple pinhole camera- as a photographer, it was easy for me to understand how the process worked.
