October Member Meeting
Wednesday, October 21st at 7:00 pm CDT - Warner Park Nature Center - Meetings are open to everyone.
This Month: Tsula from "Tsula's Big Adventures" on YouTube!
Visual Astronomy In the Age Of Astrophotography
As a retired amateur astronomer who's been studying the night sky since childhood starting with her first 4" refractor, Tsula will share what visual observing offers in an age of digital and computerized imaging.
From finding objects by hand to appreciating the subtle detail at the eyepiece, she'll cover beginner friendly techniques and gear that show how visual astronomy and astrophotography complement each other.
Note: We will hold a vote on the new 2026 bylaws at the end of the meeting. You must be present, either in person or online to vote, and you must be a member in good standing (which includes dues paid in full.) If you need to check your dues status, email us at info@bsasnashville.com.

What is a star party?
BSAS members bring and set up telescopes and information at local parks, everyone is invited to come and enjoy the view! Free, open of everyone of any age. These are usually weather permitting, so check back to see if we are still on if it's cloudy or threatening rain.
In honor of the 90th anniversary of BSAS, we partnered with Hatch Show Print to create a unique, limited-run poster! A great gift for anyone interested in astronomy.
