Final Week of Astro-April: SEVEN more online talks!

The AASVO's Citizen Sky Project has been producing a series of online talks as a part of a month-long celebration called Astro-April.

In the last couple of weeks we have presented 5 online talks on various astronomical subjects.  (If you missed any of them, recordings are posted on the main Astro-April page.)  The speakers have been engaging, the questions have been thoughtful, and we've given away $250 in "door" prizes!

New Survey about AAVSO Strategic Direction & Operations

In late 2011 we issued a survey focused on the demographics and astronomical background of our membership. The results have recently been published here.

We now have a new, follow up survey prepared. This one is focused on the strategic direction of the AAVSO and the operations of the organization. The survey asks questions about the future direction of the organization, staff, officers and council and much more.

Also, Kevin Paxson created a Google Map of members and observers, which can be viewed via the link below:
