Hello everyone,

 

The following pictures are from UB-SEDS Astronomy Project Group's first event in 3 weeks. On a warm Thursday night, we were able to see Mars and the Moon along with many other stars through our new Celestron C10-NGT telescope. The event lasted 2 hours, starting from 10:00pm till around midnight. We had a great turnout on a great observing night. Anywhere from 35 to 40 people showed up and looked through the telescope as they marveled at the sight of the Red Planet. If you are interested in being a part of future events, simply send an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with "ASTRONOMY" in the subject line.

 

Thanks and Clear Skies!
