Start time TBD. Limited capacity (RIT Observatory house can only accommodate 25).  Sign-up at RocheStar Fest.  If there are any slots unaccounted for after RSF sign-up, I will offer additional sign-ups by e-mail.

Come out and learn to use some of the equipment available at the Farash Center!

Join us for Public Observing at the Marian and Max Farash Center for Observational Astronomy. All welcome. Members come help visitors look at deep sky objects through our telescopes! Perseid Meteor shower tonight!

Weather dependent.  Of course ASRAS members can observe at the site at any time, but this night is blocked off specifically for Members to observe each month on a night with minimal moon impact for observing deep sky objects.
