Langley Skywatchers Astronomy Club
Keep Looking Up!
The Skywatchers Club is for people interested in astronomy as a hobby. We have regularly scheduled observing sessions.
Club Location
The Skywatchers NASA Observatory is on the left side of the road a short distance after turning right onto Hunsaker Loop at the T-junction at the end of Doolittle Road.
Club Meetings
The club usually has its regular business meetings at 6:00 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month at the Poquoson Library, 500 City Hall Avenue. Non-members are welcome to attend.
What to Bring
The club has several telescopes, most of which are located at the NASA observatory. Most of the club members own and use one or more telescopes and/or binoculars, which they bring to observing sessions. The club owns an 18-inch aperture telescope, which is used at some of its events.
Cost
Membership dues are $20.00 per fiscal year. An associate membership in the club, which does not require any dues payment, is available to anyone who is a temporary LaRC employee. Observing sessions are arranged for club members at locations in the Williamsburg area that are away from city lights. —
