Can you use these goggles to look directly at the sun?

I don't think I would for a long period of time. These are no more than dark, uncomfortable sunglasses. Not for welding or sun-staring.

You can, just like any pair of glasses. But I would not expect these glasses to protect my eyes. I doubt that they are rated as safety glasses.

I'm not sure if they are meant for 3D glasses, but yes, you can easily see through them.

I would say no. The lenses are a dark tint, so riding at night alone can be affected. Also, the goggle frames are actually a really light weight plastic, which I would say isnt practical for long term use. These are mostly just for style or show, and not safety or protection.

Great for birding, but I wouldn't use them for astronomy. They're not powerful enough and way too jiggly when hand held. Viewing the moon would probably be OK.

No for the sun you need a solar filter only.. This include the moon, and colors plus some oculars, but nothing for the sun, is a special filter..

If the intended use is Astronomy or star gazing, then yes, these can be used at night. When moving from either a heated (winter) or air conditioned (summer) interior, allow the optics time to acclimate to the external air temperature to prevent fogging. This generally takes at least 30 minutes, and by then, your eyes will be well adjusted for night vision, making for an enjoyable experience.

I have not tried them for star gazing. I am guessing the wider angle of view than standard binoculars would work well for that. I have found these to be very durable and well worth the $20 or $25 I paid for them.

You could but they are really heavy and would be difficult to hold on target by hand. You'll want some kind of mount like a tripod or a monopod. I've had aircraft fly through my field of view while looking at the stars and was able to follow it along. If you mean looking at them when they are high in the sky, you'll want some kind of parallelogram mount so you can get "under" the binoculars. There are probably binoculars out there that are better suited though. I had no collimation problems with mine.

Only when the sun isn't too bright that you can't see the red dot. I believe the red glasses help with this issue.

I don't believe so, but you should contact Sun Optics directly to make sure.

If you mean, do the panels track the sun's movements, then no. If you wish to adjust the panels for winter/summer angle, then yes.

I bought these to do exactly the same thing. At the optic shop they told me it is possible. However my 5 years old son found them too hard on his nose so he didn't want to use them.

yes, but the only way you can see the object if to place it practically attached to the lenses. this Item its not worth it for what its intended to use.
1294812
That's something I haven't tried. However I have seen glasses advertised on TV that claimed to do just that. But for the price of these it might just be worth a try though I'm not sure about periferal vision.

You need to purchase a solar filter to do solar observation with this telescope(or almost any.other telescope.)

From the computer yes (check out my review). I use them daily now when I'm just sitting and browsing or playing, they take a lot of the strain away and make it easier to go to sleep. They block solar rays, but they aren't really sunglasses, it will still be bright, but the danger from the rays will be gone.
