Celebrate the 2017 solar eclipse
with an introduction to popular free/open-source software packages designed for
amateur astronomers and space enthusiasts of all kinds. Join us to learn about
stargazing, finding stellar objects, automated telescope control, tracking the
International Space Station and other orbital objects, learning about the moon,
and more.
Each presenter will show you how to get free astronomical software for
Linux, Mac, and Windows, and demonstrate key features of major packages such
as Celestia, Stellarium, KStars, GPredict, and more.
