Missed Astronomy Night? Listen Here!

Last Monday, Dr. James Joyce shared his insights on astronomy as a liberal art, leaving the audience with the challenge to “look beyond the stars” as they headed off to the field in order to view the night sky. We are grateful to the North Shore Local Astronomy Club for sharing their enthusiasm, expertise, and equipment with all of us as we were able to see Saturn, the Moon, the Andromeda Galaxy, the Pleiades, and more.

Listen to Dr. Joyce’s talk in order to learn more about classical education, or for just a bit of inspiration.

The North Shore Amateur Astronomy Club (NSAAC) has over 100 members with a wide range of experience in astronomy, from those who have taught at the college level to those with no prior knowledge, but all share a desire to learn about the Universe we inhabit. While many have telescopes there are a lot of members that do not. Meetings are free and open to the public, usually on the first Friday of the month and feature a guest speaker. Their next meeting is Friday Dec 5th at the Boxford Community Center.
