What is the Astronomy Club all about?
Founded in 1973, the Penn State Astronomy Club is composed of people who enjoy observing and learning about the universe. Now into our thirty-fifth year, we have a rich and active tradition in promoting interest in the heavens to the general public. We specialize in introducing astronomy at a non-technical level. Our members derive a special satisfaction by sharing the opportunity to view the nighttime sky with fellow members and the public.
Joining the Club
You don't have to be an Astronomy & Astrophysics major to be a member of the Astronomy Club! If you are interested in joining the club, feel free to come to the next meeting. Meetings are usually every other Friday. The next meeting is scheduled for October 15, 2009 at 7:00pm. After you attend your first few meetings, if you want to become a permanent member of the club, you'll have to pay dues. Dues are $6 for one semester or $10 for the year.
