Astronomy Club of Asheville Monthly Meeting @ UNC-A, Reuter Center | Asheville | North Carolina | United States

You are invited to our next indoor meeting this Thursday evening, October 5th, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. in the Manheimer Room at the lower level of the Reuter Center on the UNC Asheville campus. The meeting is free and open to the general public.

October’s guest speaker is OLLI instructor and Astronomy Club of Asheville member Mark Whipple (http://www.astroasheville.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Mark-Whipple-Bio.pdf) who will present “Venus, Earth’s Evil Twin” (http://www.astroasheville.org/next-meeting-presentation/)

In addition to Mr. Whipple’s presentation, we’ll discuss upcoming astronomy events in our community, club Secretary Richard Reynolds (another OLLI instructor) will make a short presentation on the paradox of why those above the arctic circle might still experience sunlight during the winter solstice, and we’ll raffle off two great books (http://www.astroasheville.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/ACA-Raffle-Items-October-2017.pdf).

For those interested in what is happening in the Asheville skies this month, you may want to visit our October Sky Events Calendar here: http://www.astroasheville.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/October-2017-ACA-Sky.pdf .

We are accepting donations for our December 7th Club Social Event. Donated items do not have to be astronomy-related, and as our club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization, all donations are tax deductible. If you have an item you’d like to donate, please let us know!

We hope you’ll be able to join us this Thursday at 7:00 p.m.
