Image of Apollo 11 replica.

FYI

The 2024 RASC Observers Handbook includes an image of the Apollo 11 Replica of the LEM and the gravity buckets demonstration. See page 83. They are included in an article by Carroll Iorg of the Astronomical League on celebrating Astronomy Day.

Re: Group purchase of Observers handbook?

Hello Walid,

Unfortunately no. The order was completed in October and fulfilled just recently. All the copies were pre-paid. You can order a copy directly from A.L at the non-discounted price.

Group purchase of Observers handbook?

I’m wanting to get the 2024 Observers Handbook from the RASC from the Astronomical league. There’s a club deal where if you buy 10 you get a dollar off and free shipping. If you buy one it’s $27.00 plus $7.00 shipping. Anyone interested in committing to purchase for $26.00 per copy?
