May 2014 issue – Sidereal Times
It’s been a great pleasure to serve as the Sidereal Times editor during the past two years. Thank you for allowing me to share your articles and photos with our membership. It brings us closer together as group by helping each other progress as amateur astronomers and sparking friendships along the way.
I’m excited to announce that Joyce Lynch, former AAS President and Outreach Chair, will be taking over as your new Sidereal Times editor. This will be my final issue and I would like to thank Joyce for, once again, stepping forward to provide her services for the benefit of the club!
The May 2014 issue of Sidereal Times for the Austin Astronomical Society is available for download.
Club news and events, note from the editor, outreach opportunities and reports, AL awards, May observing targets, image of the month, Mars Globe app review, Dobsonian Rack, NASA’s Space Place, Celebrating the 75th anniversary of McDonald’s Observatory, members’ gallery and CTSP photos, and contact info.
Please contact me if you’re interested in joining the club or wish for more information! It’s a very active club and has a great outreach program.
