MEMBER
| If you would like to become a member of the Southern Colorado Astronomical Society (SCAS Pueblo) it's actually very easy. Just visit the Membership Form page and print out the form. Bring it to the next SCAS Pueblo monthly meeting or any event we have scheduled, give it to a SCAS Pueblo Executive member, and it's a done deal, you're in. No secret hand shake to memorize, no special passwords, heck you don't even need a telescope, just an interest in the skies above. Contact any member for more information. |
| Please remember to refresh your browser from time to time when visiting the site as information changes frequently. Thanks |
| SCAS is a proud business sponsor of KCME Classical Music. |
| CSU-P Observatory Temporarily Closed The Colorado State University-Pueblo Observatory has been closed for general public use pending substantial upgrades to the software and hardware. We do not have a projected time frame when the upgrades will be completed at this time. CSU-P students involved in astronomy and physics will be able to use the observatory for a short period pending the completion of individual projects. We do apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding while we make needed improvements to the observatory to better serve the university and our community. |
| If you don't know about the Southern Colorado Astronomical Society take a moment to watch the video below. We sincerely hope this will interest you to take a look at becoming a member of the society. Enjoy. |

| 2012 brings us a rare event, the Transit of Venus. Visit the June Calendar for details. If you missed the transit in 2004 this is now a once in a lifetime event. Join SCAS to watch as the second rock from the Sun crosses in front of our local Star. |

| Many thanks to PHAS/PWAM for inviting our society to the Armed Forces Day Celebration at the airport. We had good solar viewing for most of the morning until the clouds moved in. It was nice to meet so many people at the event and hope to see many of those same people at the upcoming star gaze at Lake Pueblo this coming Friday May 25th at the Arkansas Point Campground. |
| This event marked the first use of the NASA/JPL "Our Magnetic Sun" Tool Kit for SCAS. It was a true asset and we will continue using this kit at solar viewing events in the very near future. |

| SCAS will be holding a Star Gaze Friday May 25th at Lake Pueblo, the Arkansas Point Campground. We will begin just before sunset (around 8:10PM) and will continue until 11pm or midnight. Please visit the May Calendar for exact location details. |
