Garden Club of Georgia camp outreach
Frank, Chris and Theo showed the group of campers the beauty of the night sky over the Jon Wood Field at CE. The Garden club of Georgia had their yearly campout at Charlie Elliott. The children, teens and adults really enjoyed what they learned and saw, even with the moon staying below the horizon. Saturn, M57, M7 and other objects caused so may to say Woww. When I asked one teenager if this was the first time she saw Saturn for real, she said: No, I’ve seen it on my iPad. I explained to her that what she saw through my C11 was realtime and not an image, and she quickly corrected her opinon.
Thanks to all who came out.
