One of the groups that I'm a member of is the Yahoo "Michigan Astronomy" mailing list. If you live in the area and you're not already a member, I suggest checking it out. It's an informal group that mainly talks and shares photos, and also we get together at star parties a few times a year. Nice bunch of people.

If you're not already a member of Yahoo Groups, go to groups.yahoo.com, read up, sign up, and search for our group. Hope to see you there.

Despite the similarity of names, I just want to be clear that I'm just a member, not a moderator or anything. I just chose MIAstro as a domain name; and I happen to be a member, no other connection.

Here are a couple of fun things that I've put on the site for the benefit of the group.
