May 15 – Terry Hancock and Newaygo County Dark Sky Astronomers – 3:00 p.m.

March 28, 2011 by Dogwood

horsehead-nebulaAustralian Native and now Bridgeton transplant Terry Hancock, has always enjoyed the night sky and the amazing things that can be seen in deep space. “I decided to combine both my passions for Astronomy and Photography with the purchase of my first telescope that would be dedicated to deep sky imaging mounted on a concrete pier in an 8′ x 8′ shed with a “batwing” style removable roof, I call this my backyard observatory. While living in “light polluted” Muskegon I was associated with the Muskegon Astronomical Society where I met Mr. Stephen Wessling, the founder and President of Newaygo County Dark Sky Astronomers and after moving to the tiny town of Bridgeton (close to Fremont) in 2008, I became a member of the Newaygo County Dark Sky Astronomers.”
The images featured in the Dogwood are photographed using Terry Hancock’s back yard observatory using a telescope mounted camera. On May 15 at 3:00 p.m.,  Terry and the Dark Sky Astronomers will be giving a presentation on these deep space images and other wonders of the night sky.
Donations accepted at the door. Great family friendly event.
