The Double Stars Program

Welcome to the RASC Double Stars Observing Program. It encourages observers to view a variety of doubles and multi-star systems. As noted in the Observer's Handbook, 85% of stars are doubles or triples. This program is aimed at the intermediate visual observer. RASC members who complete the program may apply for a certificate.

What's Happening at the RASC is The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada's first public-facing newsletter, promoting all the amazing livestreamed astronomy content on offer from National Office, our Centres, and other astronomy organizations across the world!
