NNAS – Brian Fry – Memberships, Imaging & Social Media. 2023
Membership Secretary
The membership has held strong this year with new members joining and some members leaving us. The system we brought in last year seems to be working well, and payment via BACS seems to be the most popular way of paying the subs. The membership is running at 51 members made up of 26 family members, 22 single and 3 honorary. The facebook public page now has 295 members and the new members only page has 44 members.
Imaging.
The imaging dome is now fully working with the 115 triplet Altair Astro refractor on the Ioptron mount. It is ready to be used by any of the membership who want to learn about computerised imaging. We can sit in the “warm room” (resource centre), and control the scope and mount from here. We are also looking into how we can help anyone interested into taking there first steps into imaging. We just need some clears skies .
