This event takes place at in-person at Seven Ponds Nature Center only.

Though not as fabled as great open clusters like the Pleiades or Praesepe, paying deeper attention to globular clusters will richly reward both the eye and the imagination. Diane Hall will cover the human experience with globular clusters from the discovery of M22 in 1655 to the current wave of scientific thought on their formation and also provide observing tips for "globs" both dazzling and obscure.  Diane Hall is the current President of the Warren Astronomical Society. Her favorite "globs" are M22, M4, and M5 and she is presently trying to work her way through the Palomar list of the faintest of these faint fuzzies adorning the Milky Way.

Telescope observing afterward, weather permitting.

There is no need to register.
