Welcome to the Erie County Mobile Observers Group on the world wide web.
As our club name suggests, we have no fixed observatory: our observing
sites are as permanent as the earth is! By this we mean that we prefer
to travel to various locations throughout Erie County, Pennsylvania to
set up our telescopes and observe the night sky. Remaining mobile
allows us to take full advantage of the dark skies found only in the
more rural parts of our county. Our club is relatively small (40-50
members), but members are on a first-name basis with each other, and
are very receptive to new members and visitors, seasoned observers and
novices alike. Our primary observing sites are gameland parking lots
and other rural properties where our club has been given permission by
the respective authorities to use the property for astronomical
observing. When skies are clear, we become a telephone/e-mail alerting
service, and we notify all members of when and where we will be
observing. For information on scheduled club "star parties" click the
"Observing Schedule" link at the top of this page.
