Chapter meeting and Observing 2013-01-12

12 January, 2013 (23:38) | Events, Presentations | By: tramakers

Telescopes 101 was the topic of the main presentations. Larry gave a great overview and explained how one should setup and align them using his mount and refractor. Several members followed Larry and gave an explanation of their setup. 6 New faces made the meeting even more enjoyable. Jeff Rebitzke received his apron and Chef hat in order to be properly dressed for his presentations when he cooks his comets. The meeting finished with Jon Towne’s monthly “what’s Up“. At the Jon Wood Field the newcomers received a lot of attention in how to use their equipment and also could see what one see through the other telescopes. Click the picture to link to the gallery.
