Next Public Star Party
Next Member Meeting
Wednesday, November 20 at 7:30 pm CST at Dyer Observatory. This month's speaker is our own Keith Rainey, looking at what we'd like to find in our stockings on Chrismas! We'll look at the gear you might need or want in your garage next year.
Public Star Party
What is a star party?
BSAS members bring and set up telescopes and information at local parks, everyone is invited to come and enjoy the view! Free, open of everyone of any age. No food trucks, just *space* for everyone. These are usually weather permitting, so check back to see if we are still on if it is cloudy or threatening rain.
In honor of the 90th anniversary of BSAS, we partnered with Hatch Show Print to create a unique, limited-run poster! A great gift for anyone interested in astronomy.
The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada is that country's leading astronomy organization. The RASC has been publishing the annual Observer's Handbook for over 100 years and it's a great guide for amateurs. About half of the resource covers astronomical events for the upcoming year and the other half has more general information that is updated with each publication. BSAS can offer the U.S. Edition of the handbook to our members at a discount.
Order here!
