SF Amateur Astronomers, founded more than 50 years ago, and Sidewalk Astronomers, a volunteer-run coalition of constellation enthusiasts, together host regular City Star Parties and clinics for new telescope users. One night a month, groups of aspiring and bona-fide astronomers (plus the occasional astrophysicist) grab their telescopes and gather at locations around the city— including the Randall Museum, Corona Heights and Lands End— to cast their eyes skyward in search of comets, asteroids and the planets.
