The Centre holds a weekly wednesday social chat using the zoom videoconferencing platform at 19:00 Eastern Time.
The link is published in the kingston astronomy email list a day or two before Wednesday.
This is an informal get together for people to chat, Q&A, present an image, or images for a very short amount of time.
This is *not* a forum meant to do a 10, 15, or 45 minute presentation.
This is limited to members and their guests, and to those subscribed to the email list.

03 Jan - Quadrantid meteor shower peaks at 10:30EST today; this is a very strong and sharply peaked shower so best viewing will be before dawn, though the waning gibbous Moon will prevent seeing the fainter meteors. Watch for bright fireballs in spite of the Moon!
06 Jan - Last quarter Moon
08 Jan - asteroid 137 Meliboea occults star TYC 0172-02312-1 at 01:29EST.
