Biographical Information:

 

 
Photo of AmbassadorOver the years, Greg Piepol had plenty of opportunities to view the night sky. It wasn't until he looked through a solar filter that he found his calling: observing and imaging the solar chromosphere. Now, Greg is tuned into the daily activities of the sun and is always searching for new ways of enhancing the view of our ever changing star.

Greg's images have been featured in the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) and at MSNBC. Publications include Astronomy, Sky and Telescope and Nature magazines to name a few. They continue to be used in technical and teaching resources worldwide.
