Because these are still asked for/about – and because the cnyo.org website continues to suffer from WordPress-related aging that may make it less-and-less accessible as time progresses, the original brochures put together as hand-outs at hosted events and star parties have been embedded into the page below for your reading and downloading pleasure.
These include the following:
- A Guide For New Observers (original post, local PDF, local page)
- A Guide For Solar Observing (original post, local PDF, local page)
- A Guide For Lunar Observing (original post, local PDF, local page)
- How The Night Sky Moves (original post, local PDF, local page)
- A Guide To Meteor Showers (original post, local PDF, local page)
As from the paragraph announcing their generation and availability in the CNYO Cheat Sheet:
In preparation for upcoming 2013 lecture and observing sessions, we have put together instructional brochures to help introduce the Night Sky to attendees. The first of these, entitled “A Guide For New Observers,” is provided below in PDF format. This brochure will be available at our combined lecture/observing sessions, but feel free to bring your own copy (or the PDF on a tablet with a good red acetate cover!).
