Johnson Space Center Astronomy Society Meeting

Our June speaker will be Mark Matney from the Johnson Space Center presenting "The Challenge of Orbital Debris".  Here's an opportunity to learn if the Kessler Syndrome (like in the movie "Gravity") has real ramifications for NASA and commercial spaceflight.

Are you new to astronomy and want to learn what to see in the night time sky?  We've got your answer!  Our other topics will include 'What's Up in the Sky This Month?' with suggestions for observing, the intriguing 'Astro Oddities', the novice Q&A Session where you can ask your questions to our membership, a preview of our upcoming star parties, and the informative Member's Minute.

JSCAS is open to anyone who wants to learn about astronomy and membership is FREE!  After joining, you'll have access to our Loaner Telescopes and our amazing Astronomy DVD Library with 100's of choices to learn from (produced by Astronomy Magazine, NASA, Discovery Channel, etc.).  Our meetings are held on the 2nd Friday of each month at 7:30 pm in the lecture hall of the USRA Bldg. (3600 Bay Area Blvd. at Middlebrook Dr.)  Pizza and refreshments follow at Mr. Gatti's at El Camino Real and Bay Area Blvd.  For more info, see our website at jscas.net

Note to all those who have borrowed DVDs from the JSCAS Media Library:  PLEASE BRING THEM BACK AT THE BEGINNING & DURING THE BREAK AT THIS MEETING.  YES, you can check them out again...or acquire new ones!
