Telescope Clinic Date: 31 January 2009 16:30 to 17:30 Details:Land's End, San Francisco
Star parties have long been a great place to socialize with more experienced amateur astronomers, and get some tips about the night sky. But twilight and dark are not the best times to tinker with and get familiar with a new telescope.
SFAA and the Sidewalk Astronomers are inviting new (and "new again") telescope owners to take advantage of their collective expertise on a one-on-one basis at the monthly City Star Party, held at Land's End and at the Randall Museum in San Francisco.
Make:SF - February 1st 2009 Menlo Park -
