RVAS Monthly Meetings: The next meeting will be on Monday, April 20 at 7:30pm, and are held at the VWCC STEM building ST314.


Our presentation will be Nancy Vogelaar sharing images of Iceland, including auroral images, from the trip she and husband Bruce just took.

Later Michael Good will do a sketch of the life of Percival Lowell, and share images from a trip he took to the observatory at Flagstaff, ending with several images Bill Kraus took from Flagstaff just last month.
