SUMMARY:BMAA Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:BMAA is inviting you to a scheduled Monthly Meeting that will take place at the Upper Dublin Planetarium\, in Sandy Run Middle School\, Dresher\, PA. \nProf. Kim Small will present “Using a Planetarium to Teach The Reason for the Season” – This session will demonstrate how the effects of the cause of the seasons can be visualized in the planetarium facility. Common misconceptions of the cause of the seasons will be discussed. We will explore the four important seasonal dates of equinoxes and solstices under the dome to make sense of seasonal changes based on the sun’s path and position in the sky. \nPlease park in the main parking lot of the school\, enter the main doors by the flagpole then follow the signs to the planetarium. Doors will open at 7:30pm.

SUMMARY:Outreach Event
DESCRIPTION: “21st Century Amateur Astronomy”  by Dwight Dulsky\, BMA2 Outreach Coordinator and NASA Ambassador\nHosted by the Bowman’s Hill Wildflower Preserve\nThe Presentation will be over Zoom – 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM\nCheck the organizer’s website for the Zoom link.\n\n\nThe face of amateur astronomy has changed dramatically over the past few years. Advances in optics\, precision mounts\, computerized cameras and tracking capabilities have all elevated the world of the backyard astronomer to new levels that rival what professional observatories were capable of just a few years ago. Amateur equipment and citizen science opportunities abound for ordinary people to make valuable contributions to the professional astronomical community. Whether just casually stargazing with friends or monitoring the skies for science\, it is an exciting time we live in for amateur astronomers. We'll explore what it takes to get involved with observing the sky\, along with showing some of the amazing astrophotos taken by the club members of the Bucks-Mont Astronomical Association.
