						<strong>Information for Visitors:</strong>
						<br>
						Please feel free to ask many questions because amataur astronomers love to talk about astronomy. You may look through all of the telescopes we just ask that you don&#39;t touch while looking since most are delicate and expensive. We hope to see you there!
