Overview
This is a drop-in workshop that is open to students at all levels.
Drop by once to find out what it's all about, or come on a more
regular basis and really learn how to use the telescope.
For those who have not heard about Leuschner: SFSU's Department
of Physics and Astronomy partnered with UC Berkeley's Department
of Astronomy a few years ago to refurbish the 30-inch telescope,
thanks in part to a generous donation from an SFSU alum. SFSU
and UC Berkeley now share time on the telescope, running it
remotely from our respective campuses.
