Cadence Elementary is having its first Astronomy Night on February 12th, from 7 pm to 9 pm! The Astronomy Club at UCI would like to help out, so if you’re interested in getting some volunteer work under your belt, we’d love to have you join!

We are looking for people willing to assist Rohit Chopra (our telescope operator) on a telescope, help with hands-on activities, help with a presentation/trivia, and to help with carpooling members to the event. Please let us know ASAP if you’re interested, since we can only have so many people volunteer!

From February 15th to 16th this year, the Astronomy Club at UCI will be taking a cabin trip at Joshua Tree National Park! This will be a great opportunity to socialize with your fellow astronomers, and as always a great place to get away from the light pollution to get a clearer,  better view of the stars!

We can only take a certain amount of people, so sign up soon if you want in! The club will be charging a $70 fee to attend, but that will cover all major costs like your entrance fee into the park, the cost of the cabin, the cost of transportation (we will reimburse drivers, and they will get first pick on beds upon arrival), food, etc. Of course, you’re welcome to bring what you’d like, such as if you have a personal telescope at home.

If you’d like to sign up, use this link to let us know you’re coming! Spots are limited and are granted on a first-come-first-serve basis, so sign up soon!

Come to the MSTB courtyard this Monday, November 11th at 7:00am to view Mercury’s transit! We’ll be able to view Mercury orbit across the sun during this time, and the next transit won’t be until 2032 so don’t miss out! Coffee and donuts will be for sale
