Event Details
Dearest Astronomy Lover,
Amateur Astronomers Group brings you yet another Stargazing night and this time it is all about Telescopes and Deep Sky Objects !
Deep-sky objects are celestial objects that exist outside our solar system. In this session we will locate and observe many deep-sky objects such as nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies.
- A Nebula is a cloud of gas and dust in space.
- Star clusters are groups of stars which are gravitationally bound.
Globular Clusters are tight groups of hundreds of thousands of very old stars.
Open Custers generally contain less than a few hundred members, and are often very young. - A Galaxy is a huge collection of gas, dust, and billions of stars and their solar systems.
We will also observe Venus and Mars through our powerful telescopes.
We will learn how our telescopes work. Our experts will guide you if you are planning to purchase one.
