The ACA attempted an early winter Dark Sky Star Gaze at NMR-DSO on November 07, Saturday at 5:30PM. Twelve members attended.

Although it didn't rain and we enjoyed mild temperatures, it was cloudy, overcast. Stan showed some members some of our club telescopes. Tedda worked with Kenneth on our computer publicity. Maryglenn and other STEM volunteers were pleased to get the attached outlines of current constellations, even though LMMS cancelled their STEM night program for the next week. We enjoyed general conversation with plenty of Chili, BBQ with popcorn, green beans, rice, coleslaw. For some of the evening we watched a video: The Theory of Everything, about Stephen Hawking's life. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.

We are looking forward to our next meeting on Nov.20, Fri.7PM, at RPSEC Room 217. Please take the planetarium elevator to the second floor.

Respectfully submitted,

Tedda Howard

The Astronomy Club of Augusta met on November 20, Friday, 7:00PM at the RPSEC for a lovely musical program. ________ members attended.

Our original plan was to meet in a classroom upstairs with special audio equipment, but we ended up in the planetarium, which worked out very well for the audio and video. Our speaker, Victor, and programmer, Kathy Levy, took us through a history of astronomical music in a most delightful way. Many Thanks to Maryglenn for delicious refreshments.
