Slide and Equipment Night

September 10th is the annual slide and equipment night. This is also known as our “Show and Tell” night. The “slide” part is old terminology. If you actually have real slides you might need to bring your own projector. But if you have images to share on your laptop or thumb drive, you are encouraged to share. Last year two people brought pictures from 2010 solar eclipse. Other pictures have highlighted home observatories, astronomy-themed vacations, and, of course, astrophotography. Equipment is often home-made scopes, mounts or accessories but if you are one of the first to buy some particular equipment that would be of interest also. The fun starts at 8 p.m.
