The Amazing Sky
Alan Dyer takes you on a photographic tour of the most amazing sights the sky has to offer.
The sky provides us with an endless show filled with beautiful sights and wondrous objects, many visible with just unaided eyes — such as auroras and meteor showers.
Alan tours us through our amazing sky using images and time-lapse movies he has taken, from home in Canada and from far-off lands in pursuit of foreign skies and spectacular eclipses.
Lukasz Gornisiewicz's Slideshows
Lukasz is excited to show everybody his latest wide-field astrophotos.
Astronomy Cinema
Astronomy related programming will be presented throughout the week in the auditorium.
Open Mic
Participants will have the opportunity to make short presentations to the group on any subject they choose, as long as it is something generally related to astronomy or the hobby.
A laptop computer feeds an LCD projector and a sound system. Powerpoint presentations are ideal.
Buy-and-Sell Tables
Tables will be available for attendees to sell their surplus stuff, and hopefully find some cool new stuff.
