We are a small group of volunteers, which is found at the observatory of the wrist every time the sky is clear.
We meet, however, even for a pizza or a barbecue for the occasion in the company, to discuss a few hours
of astronomy. The whole group started with a minimum of background knowledge on this subject, those typical of an
amateur, we have trained together over the years, always finding and pursuing new business. If you want to join us
you can do it, whatever your training on, even if you know nothing of astronomy, may be an opportunity to learn ...
There are no registration fees just to come up at the wrist, for example in an evening observing that we organize
each month, or contact us and we'll see how to find us. Not only meet and discuss astonomia carry out various activities which serve to develop specific goals such as the dissemination and scientific research, of course every person in the group plays the second of its ability and knowledge. The first objective, the release, serves not only to make astronomical knowledge in the municipalities of meat, even to make known our group. In an unspecified future we hope to install the whole of the Polse di Cougnes a planetarium, which is a semi-spherical dome in which it is projected the sky, and can also provide a tourist attraction as it were, and still more reason to visit and also help Wrist and grow the local economy as a whole. |

Our second goal is scientific research in the summer of 2005 the group began a research program in collaboration with the National Observatory of Asiago. THE GAPC collaboration is part of the loop, which brings together comments from various groups amateurs scattered throughout Italy. The program aims to monitor changes in light of a particular group of stars called symbionts.

The "AG Draconis is a star who has been keen throughout the summer and early fall of 2007, especially towards
the end of September when he started to have a unique stage in bright, especially the B band and V,
thereby repeating in outburst as the year before.
We received great satisfaction when our group was named in an international circulation, thus giving us some
visibility, albeit small, even in the scientific community.
