Event

We will be holding our monthly meeting for members and guests starting at 1:15 PM in Berliner Hall of Hofstra University, 1 st floor, California Avenue. Parking is in the lot on Huntington Place across the street. AOS meetings include observing reports and a guest speaker on astronomy topics.

In February we are pleased to welcome guest speaker Robert Reeves. Mr. Reeves, author of two lunar books, presents the evolution of the Moon and its geology.  An accomplished deep sky astrophotographer, his current passion is re-popularizing the Moon within the amateur astronomy community by explaining the origin of the Moon, the evolution of its face, and introducing its geology to moon lovers everywhere. Robert has perfected image processing techniques that allow the amateur astronomer, using modest equipment, to exceed the quality of Earth-based professional lunar photographs taken during the Apollo era.

This will be a hybrid meeting via WebEx. Non-members please contact our Secretary for an invitation to attend at AOSSecretary@aosny.org.
