On
a clear night under a dark sky, you can see about 2000 stars with your unaided
eye. You can look trillions of miles into space and see thousands of years into
the distant past.
As
you gaze at the stars you may wonder: What is the meaning or pattern of the
night sky? What is my place in the heavens? You are not alone in asking these
questions. The mysteries of space have always fascinated people.
Astronomy
is the oldest science and one of the newest. Discoveries are being made today
with the most sophisticated equipment and techniques ever available. Yet the
dedicated amateur astronomer can still make important contributions.
The
Brunswick Astronomy Club will teach you the basic concepts of astronomy and
space exploration. You will learn to enjoy the beauty of the night sky as your
knowledge and understanding grow.
The
Club
meets on second Thursday of every month at the Brunswick
Recreation Center. Our
meetings are open to the public and best of all they are FREE
to everyone. Visit our
EVENTS
page for meeting details and to learn more about upcoming events and star
parties.
Come, discover and learn
at your own pace. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site!
