Local Astronomer

Lakeville astronomer Mike Renzi will present a slide show with images of deep space objects, planets, and asteroid videos that he has taken from my observatory when he appears as the guest speaker at our meeting on Dec. 4th at the Fireside Grille.

This will be a regular meeting of the club, but due to the nature of the program, the public is invited to attend.  All are welcome!!

Mr. Renzi will talk about how his interest in astronomy began when he was a child watching the Apollo Moon landing, and about the thrill of using a telescope for the first time, seeing the planets and Jupiter's moons - and getting hooked. He will briefly touch on my telescope making projects and also a little about my observatory. In addition, he will share his perspective about the rich educational opportunities available in astronomy.
