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.
