In Town Star Party (ITSP)

Details

Come join San Jose Astronomical Association (SJAA) for an evening of stargazing.

Event details:
Events are held at the parking lot of our headquarters, Houge Park San Jose. Event duration is 2hrs. We plan to have a short introduction to night sky of the day followed by an observing session where SJAA volunteers will share night sky views from their personal telescopes.

Please refrain from bringing your own telescopes (Binoculars are welcome). If you like to be a volunteer with or without a telescope please email at "itsp@sjaa.net".

Just before this star party, there's a separate introduction to astronomy talk starting at 8:15 at the same location. See Astro 101: Sights of the Cosmos, Intro to Astronomy (https://www.meetup.com/sj-astronomy/events/286366930/).

SJAA as an all volunteer-nonprofit org depends on the City of San Jose for the use of facilities at Houge Park. To maintain this relationship we need to provide facility use data to the city. Therefore, we ask you to sign-in (no traceable personal data collected) when you arrive at the event.
