The Observer's Handbook is a phenomenal resource for any astronomer. It tells you everything that's going to be happening in the sky that year! But it can be intimidating. There are lots of charts and diagrams that can scare off new astronomers upon first glance. 

We are covering lots in this session by going over Dwarf and Minor Planets, Comets, Meteors and Dust! 

Plan out when to see the Galilean moons with your Observer's Handbook! Join us as we delve into planets and their satellites. Another great beginner target!

Learn all about observing the Moon and the Sun by using the Observer's Handbook. The Moon is a spectacular object for beginners, since it is so easy to find in the sky. You can see it anywhere as long as the weather is clear!

We will go over the popular Sky Month by Month section in this session! Learn how to use the Observer's Handbook to know exactly what is up in the sky each month. We will also be discussing eclipses.
