Ken Kopczynski, the Sky Guy, is the President of the Tallahassee Astronomical Society (TAS). TAS is a volunteer club of likeminded individuals who are interested in astronomy and like to share that interest. TAS holds a monthly free planetarium show at the Downtown Digital Dome and Theatre every first Saturday. They also hold frequent public events. You can access the TAS events calendar at our webpage: www.stargazers.org.

On August 16, due to the imminent total solar eclipse on August 21, we'll learn about the solar eclipse and discuss best (and safe) ways to view it; then we'll see what's going on in the night sky through some high powered telescopes out in the back yard.

The inside presentation should last about 30 minutes beginning at 8:30 pm. We’ll view the night sky thereafter for as long as folks are interested.
