About CAS
The Cumberland Astronomical Society is a
non-profit amateur organization, dedicated to advancing the education of its members
and the general public in the subjects of astronomy and the related space and
physical science, and to increase public awareness and enjoyment of these
sciences. We are a group of astronomy enthusiasts from all walks of life who
share a common scientific interest. Some members are avid astronomy buffs, others are just starting and have never looked
through a telescope. Whatever a member's experience or interests, all share a
common fascination for the mysteries of our universe and a willingness to exchange
and share the results of practical observational experience. Each meeting we
try to have one or more speakers to help bring us up to date on different
topics in astronomy. The public is welcome to attend the meetings of the
Cumberland Astronomical Society.
