When observing at night we Polar Align using the stars. I am wondering, is there a way to align in the daylight to do solar (h-alpha) observing? Or do you not worry about it because of the size of the sun and just do all your adjustments manually.

Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.
