Planets

 
     

These should not be observed with either FTN or FTS because they leave residual images on the CCD.

         
 

Stars

 
     
 

Depends on the magnitude of the stars. The exposure times for asteroids can be used as a guide to exposure times for stars.

 
         
 

Bright Stars

 
     
 

Stars brighter than magnitude 8 should not be routinely imaged without advice from the FT Operations Centre.

 
         
 

The Moon

 
     
 

The Moon is too large and too bright to be imaged with a Faulkes Telescope. See the Field of View link on the right.

 
         
 

The Sun

 
     
 

The Sun is much too bright to be imaged with a Faulkes Telescope. The telescope will not allow this to happen.

 
        **That did not export well either.**
