Is it possible to gaze the moons surface through a telescope aimed at still waters

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-04-25] [Hit: ]
Just look at the moons reflection in a lake with the naked eye.to which your eye is exposed more than reduce brightness.......
During a solar eclipse, people are recommended to stare at it through the reflection in a water basin to decrease the brightness.
But I was wondering, is it possible to gaze the moons surface through a telescope pointed to its reflection in the still waters of a lake?

-
Why the hell wouldn't you just point the damned telescope UP?!?!?!?

-
Possible but not helpful.
The advice on a solar eclipse is just intended to get people to not look at the sun directly - becasue that will damage your vision - permanently.

There is no need to decrease the brightness of the moon. You can safely look directly at it - even with the most powerful of telescopes.

-
No. Why on earth would you want to ? The Moon is not radiating dangerous amounts of energy which would damage your eyes. And the surface of a lake is not calm and is not a perfect reflector. You don't need a telescope to observe that. Just look at the moon's reflection in a lake with the naked eye.

That water basin trick is designed to reduce the ultra-violet radiation
to which your eye is exposed more than reduce brightness.
