Future Astronomer's Club

Fifth graders Sophie Mulcahy and Virginia Sheriff were accepted to the Charlottesville Astronomical Society’s Future Astronomer’s Club. After attending three one-hour instruction sessions at the McCormick Observatory at UVA, they will be given their own telescope at no cost, to view and study the moon, planets, and many other deep sky objects! They learned about this opportunity after their field trip to the observatory earlier this year.
