Comments:	Astronomy has always been a source of scientific inspiration and wonderment. Probably the most significant revolution in science was spurred by astronomy. Introducing yourself to astronomy allows you to begin to explore inter-related science topics such as relativity, gravity, light and matter, and quantum physics. But lets start with the basics. Let us first get to know and understand our solar system from the Sun to Neptune. Learn about the history of the discovery of our solar system and how it formed. We will also be looking at the night sky through binoculars and telescopes. Monthly on the first Wednesday of the month.
