How to Use Your Telescope
Did you buy a telescope and need help getting started? Whether you bought it last Christmas or years ago, the Prairie Astronomy Club would like to help. And, there’s no cost.
On January 20th we’ll offer a session to give hands-on assistance. It’s open to the public, and if you have a telescope you want to use, you are encouraged to bring it. The program is tentatively set for 7PM.
Also we have a Telescope Buyer’s Guide on our website:
