Greenville Mall
Outreach Success
A Solar
System Party was held at the Greenville Mall parking lot, next to Mc
Donald's.
All five of the
naked-eye planets were visible at the same time in the evening —
an event that won't be repeated until April 2036. The public was
able to take a closer look
at Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and our Moon through the
Club Members telescopes.
Web Site Update Continues!
09/02/2010
We had to move our web site to a new hosting location. Due to this
move -
Our web site has step back in time and needs to be updated.
This will take time in the long run. Scripting codes and material
will all need to be manually put back in. Please be patient with us
as we try to move as fast as we can to get our website up and
running smoothly once again.Many pages and
features are not working at this time. They are being worked on as
time avails itself. AGAIN ... THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE!
