Hi everybody!

The February B-SIG presentation will be on Saturday Feb. 24th at 1:30pm at the Edina Public Library.

Edina Public Library
Meeting Room
5280 Grandview Square
Edina, MN 55436
Ph: 612-543-6325

Bob Kerr will be giving a talk on "The Nature of Double Stars".

Here's some further info:

The presentation is about the nature of double stars, their profusion in the night sky, the general ease of how to locate them, and how to observe them. The hunt for double stars teaches the beginner about how the night sky is laid out, the constellations, star magnitude values, how to use their telescopes, most of which can be small aperture, and the beauty of different colored pairs. Binoculars are also excellent instruments for observing hundreds of double stars. I'll also have handouts.

We hope you can make it!!

It is worth mentioning that the Edina Library is not the same as the Southdale Library (also in Edina) where several other B-Sig presentations have been held.

Hi Kris,

Yea I thought about that when I sent my notice out. That's why I added the address too.

Hopefully people will see that.
