Jeff Rebitzke and Steve Siedentop spend Friday evening 11/02 with BS troop 554 in Lawrenceville and go through some of the reuirements for the Astronomy badge. They were able to demonstrate different types of telescopes, discussed why telescopes and binoculars are important to astronomy, and Jeff gave a presentation on the sun and sunspots. Outside, they showed the troop red (Mu Cep), yellow (Capella), and blue-white (Pleiades) stars as well as NGC457, M31, and M42. As so often happens at events like this, Jeff had his camera in his car, but did not think about making a picture.
