The monthly meeting of the Peterborough Astronomical Association's (PAA) will take place online November 4th, instead of at our customary location of the Rotary Education Centre/Guest Services Building, Riverview Park Zoo, but instead in your own home. Even Covid-19 and these uncertain times cannot stop the spread of information and knowledge by the members of the PAA. Our work around involves using a platform called Zoom. To participate just make sure that in advance, you opened a (free) Zoom account on whatever iphone or tablet device you wish to participate with and then contact  https://www.peterboroughastronomy.com/zoom_register.php for the password and link to our evenings presentations.

Our “Novice Astronomy Classes” are focused on the practical aspects of learning about astronomy. You will be introduced to astronomy related subjects at a very basic level, but in a logical sequence.  This month's session is a continuation of our Astronomy Class Series, Lesson 8 in the series, “Constellations. Constellations represent the cultural and historical record of mankind’s fascination with the night sky. These signposts are written large on in the sky on any cloudless night.  Cultures around the globe have found patterns in the stars and have used them to entertain, instruct and navigate.  A familiarity with constellations has practical importance for amateur astronomers too.  They provide a road map with which to locate objects of interest through binoculars and telescopes.  In addition, you will learn why constellations appear and disappear with the changing seasons and when different constellations are best visible. Come join us at the PAA’s next Novice Astronomy Class to learn about the night sky and take your first step in becoming acquainted with astronomy. 

If you are even remotely interested, be on-line by 6:00 p.m. to see what you can learn about the Universe around you. The classes will run about 45 minutes each session, before our regular meeting resumes. There’s no obligation to stay for the meeting that follows, but you are more than welcome.

Shortly after 7:00 p.m. there will be a brief meeting. The main presentation for this month will be “The History of the Crebar Observatory”, by club member, Rick Stankiewicz. Come join us in our continuing series of presentations on members personal observatories. Learn how they came to be and what makes them unique. You will learn how this facility has evolved over time and why we are proud to have it in our lineup. We guarantee you will see and learn things you never knew existed. A feast for the eyes and a thirsty mind. The price is right…it costs you nothing but your time.  

The Sky This Month will be posted on our club website for all to access. There will also be the usual opportunities to have your questions answered, at no cost. All we ask is that you register in advance at https://www.peterboroughastronomy.com/zoom_register.php This is an all ages meeting and  the venue is totally barrier free. Just relax at home and “live and learn” as they say. Also, you don’t need a telescope to participate, but a curious mind helps.
