     News
    The Albuquerque Astronomical Society - Observe, Educate, Have Fun
    TAAS has a world-class program that brings exciting science to the classroom with star parties throughout the school year. Inside the StarLab, a portable planetarium, a TAAS presenter delights visitors with a visual tour of the well known constellations and their mythology. Classroom activities include Rainbow in the Night Sky, All About Comets, and Making a Pocket Solar System. A field of telescopes provided by volunteers provides outstanding viewing of the objects in our night sky. Often a TAAS volunteer will deliver a laser-guided tour of the constellations.  Come join us at the Star Party at 6:30 P.M. on Thursday, February 16 here at Van Buren Middle School.
