Overview

Join us this month as SAS members who were at our Goldendale Star Party in June will share some of their favorite astrophotography images along with some learning moments. SAS is a space for all-levels in using their telescopes and learning to image and we hope you can join us. Should be a fun, interactive time as we move closer to meeting in person again.

We normally meet on the campus of the University of Washington in the physics auditorium but are temporarily meeting over Zoom. 

As always, our monthly general meetings are open to both SAS members and the public. We hope to see you online and/or in-person soon!
