Featured Presentation

"Variable Star Science and You", presented by MIRA's Jean Perkins, PhD

Have you ever wanted to use your own telescope to contribute to science?  This talk will show you how you can do just that through the American Association of Variable Star Observers.  For more than a century, the AAVSO has brought together amateur and professional astronomers for the advancement of astronomical science.  To start you don't even need a camera.
