Introduction to Amateur Astronomy:  It's Not What You Think!

Members of the Bucks-Mont Astronomical Association will be on hand to introduce the fascinating pastime of amateur astronomy. Today, the modern amateur astronomer has access to a vast amount of equipment and resources to explore the night sky. This hobby can begin with casually learning the names of the bright stars and constellations. But with some patience and practice, anyone can unlock the secrets of the universe right from their own backyard. Using modest telescopes, the moon, planets and far off galaxies can all be in reach of the amateur astronomer!  This is a Libraries Rock Summer Quest Program.  Receive a raffle ticket at the end of the program for a Summer Quest prize.
