Global Astronomy Month 2011
at the Virtual Telescope

This April 2011, Global Astronomy Month (GAM2011) is back, to keep alive the legacy of the International Year of Astronomy (IYA2009) and promote friendships from all around the world, under the same stars.

Plenty of free events will be planned and remote astronomy will play an important role. At the Virtual Telescope we are proud to support GAM2011 and we invite you to join us over the internet for several free, public events and personal observing sessions. See below our plans and check them often for updates!
