Observing Challenge

December, 2004

NHAC Observation Challenge Certification Program

Thanks to the great efforts of all those who have contributed Observation Challenges in the past, and also the input from many members, we have a new and revised Observation Challenge program.

If you have worked on ones from the previous list, they can still be submitted. If you have done some from the old and now are working from this new set of challenges, they may be combined to receive a certificate. If you have never done this before, now is a great time to try-out the NHAC Observation Challenge.

How to do it:

Choose the list for the current month, print out the chart of objects, and print out the associated charts. Lunar and Planetary object lists may be used any month those objects are visible to supplement your monthly observations. Each Lunar and Planetary observation may only be used once per year.
