Public Observatory Program Starts Saturday, April 2nd!!

Hello everyone,

In just under two weeks on the evening of Saturday, April 2nd the 5A's will open the 18" Clark Refractor at the Amherst College Wilder Observatory for our FREE weekly public Observatory Program.  Come look through a telescope that's as long as a bus and see the rings of Saturn, star clusters, nebulae, galaxies, and much more!

The program starts at 9 PM and runs ONLY IF THE SKY IS CLEAR.  The program is free of charge and all ages are welcome.  Please visit HERE for more details and directions.  If you visit our homepage at http://www.amherstastronomy.org/ after 7 PM on Saturday April 2nd this blog will be replaced by the status of the program (go or no-go based on weather).
