The Tucson Amateur Astronomy Association is a group of people that want to share their interest in the sky. General meetings are held monthly, and frequent observing sessions are scheduled at dark sites. Our members vary in expertise from beginner to professional. Many members attend observing sessions to get a feel for the kind of telescope they may someday like to buy or make.
Some members have little interest in observing, but enjoy the monthly lectures.
A growing number are using computers to learn about the night sky. There are those who try their hand at astrophotography or telescope making. Our public star parties help introduce the glory of the night sky to school kids and the general public. The TAAA makes Astronomy fun for everyone.
