2008-10-22 Atlanta’s “The Children’s School” at Charlie Elliott
Chapters members Jon Wood and Theo Ramakers showed approx. 24 students and teachers some treasures of the Universe in a cloudy sky. Following some story telling by Jon about the old greeks and the stories behind some of the constellations, the students got to see some double stars, star clusters, the Andromeda gallaxie and nebulas as well as Jupiter and its moons.

They even went as far as wanting to know how those pretty pictures were made that they see on the web and magazines. So we showed them. This was a very interesting class and I believe we were able to spark some interest in Astronomy in them. I have the feeling that in a few years, the chapter might grow with a few new astro imagers.
