ABOUT US

  
  I
n a country where astrology and astronomy are the same, where the solar eclipse is the apocalypse, where Mars closest approach brings with it "Martian invasion", or where a very well known newspaper writes that Mars can be seen at 1:00 P.M!!!, we still have the hope that amateur astronomy can be improved in Lebanon.
The aim of this site is to share our online library with all the people who have the curiosity to learn about amateur astronomy. Moreover our intention is to collaborate with Lebanese amateur astronomy clubs directed by astrophysicists who spent years of observations, data analysis and solving mathematical equations to be what they are now.
 We are a group of 5 people and we hope that this group will extend in the future.
