Report

Day-1 (Tuesday, April 25 2011)
At 08:00pm the member of CASA | Club Astronomi Santri Assalaam (Assalaam's Students Astronomy Club), conduct discussion about celestial object and definitions used in astronomical such as what is azimuth, horizon, distance in degree, etc. The member of CASA also introduced tools for observing the sky such telescope, binocular, and SLR (Single Lens Reflect) digital camera. We used Starry Nigth Pro 6 to simulate the sky, the celestial object, and it’s movement. The members of CASA were very exited. They got a lot of new knowledge about sky and astronomy. The discussion finished at 09:30pm.

Day-2 (Wednesday, April 26 2011)
On the second day, we tried to observe the sky. To observe the sky, we used Sky Wathcer and Maede as telescope, and Starry Night Pro 6 as guidance software which guide us to indentify the object. But at 09:00pm the sky is slightly cloudly, so we were a bit difficult to observe the sky. Finally we decided to observe the sky at 03:00am. At 03:00 am the sky was bright enough so that we can observe the sky.
