Introduction to Astronomy and Backyard Astrophotography by Brian Hassett in Dundrum Library

Astronomy explores the universe beyond Earth, from nearby planets to distant galaxies. Backyard astrophotography makes this exploration personal, allowing anyone with basic equipment to capture the Moon, planets, and deep-sky objects from home. Together, they turn simple stargazing into a hands-on way to observe, record, and connect with the night sky

In this talk Brian plans to cover the history of astronomy, the scale of the universe, planets, deep sky, and backyard astrophotography. He will also provide links to useful YouTube channels and Facebook groups. Suitable for all ages.
