Hi guys,

My school just set up an Astro Club and we are planning our events ahead.

Does anyone knows if there is anything interesting to observe in the next 5 months?

Prefably some thing easier on the eyes as those participating in the events are mostly inexperienced.

Thanks for helping. Appreciated lots!
