Side-Walk Astronomy in McQueston Park tonight

The conditions look good for a night of side-walk astronomy. I will setup my scope at the usual spot by the parking area about 8:30 pm tonight.
I hope club members and others will bring their scopes and join me in showing the public the moon and planets as well as other bright objects as light conditions allow. I hope to see you there.

Anybody up for McQueston?

I plan to go to McQueston Park tonight for a few hours and I was wondering if there was any interest. I plan to get there for about 9.

Sidewalk Astronomy at McQueston Park-Wed.May 19

(Wednesday, May 19)
Several club members are taking their telescopes to Hamilton's McQueston Park to do some sidewalk astronomy tonight. We'll probably arrive 8:30-9:00 and stay for a couple of hours. McQueston Park is on Upper Wentworth Street, just south of the Lincoln Alexander Parkway, on the east side of the street. Join us if you can.

Update:
There were 6 of us at McQueston Park tonight: Jim, Joe, Kevin & Ed, Me and Don. Together we showed the wonders of the Moon, Venus, Saturn, Mars and assorted stars to about a gazillion kids and their families. Many of them had never looked through a telescope before and there were far too many "Galileo Moments" to count! A very satisfying, but exhausting, evening for us.

Observing Sat Mar 6 at Tyneside

The weather forecast is looking good again for another night of observing. (Hard to believe we've had several nice nights in a row!!)

Several HAA members will be heading out to our alternate observing site on Tyneside Rd for some stargazing. (directions can be found on our "About Us" page.) We welcome others to bring their scopes and join us or just come and look through the equipment that will be there.

We'll be setting up between 7 and 8pm and will stay until we get too chilled or the fog rolls in around midnight.
