After finally finding some time under the stars, have you ever thought,
"What should I observe? There's so much up there!"
The Astronomical League offers nearly 30 observing programs to help in
just that situation. Some are designed for the novice such as
Constellation Hunters, Universe Sampler, and Lunar Clubs. Other
programs, including the Messier, Urban, and Planetary Observer Clubs,
are better suited for intermediate observers. More experience deep sky
hunters can hone their skills with the tougher selections of the
Herschel, Arp Peculiar Galaxies, and Galaxy Groups and Clusters Clubs.
Truly, there is a program for everyone!
Upon completion of each club, the observer is presented a certificate
suitable for framing and a nifty lapel pin. These lists are a low
stress way to enjoy the many wonders of the night sky.
