Description
The Skyscrapers, Inc., The Amateur Astronomical Society of Rhode Island, is the second oldest continuously operating amateur astronomical society in the USA. Founded in 1932 by Prof. Charles Smiley of Brown University, the Society is currently composed of about 125+ amateur astronomers. The Society was incorporated in 1936 to purchase the Seagrave Observatory in Scituate, RI. We are recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)3 educational organization.
Monthly meetings are held, usually the first Friday of the month, and frequently feature professional astronomers, educators, researchers, or representatives from space sciences organizations, i.e., NASA.
PLEASE NOTE: Currently, membership to this group is limited to Skyscrapers, Inc. members only. Public viewing of messages/discussions is permitted. Others interested in the Society may visit us on Saturday evening public viewing sessions, or by sending an email to one of the Society's officers (see web address below).
