Welcome to the website of the Howard Astronomical League, Central Maryland's premiere astronomy club! HAL is an amateur astronomy club located in Howard County, Maryland. We hold monthly meetings, conduct public star parties and provide community educational talks. We invite everyone to be a part of astronomy in Central Maryland. You will find information about our meeting dates on our Meetings page. Information on membership is located on the Join HAL page. |

| Join Us also for our Star Parties and Outreach events. In addition, we provide an e-mail group for communication of timely club News, to alert subscribers of impromptu gatherings at one of our observing sites, and for astronomical discussions. Information to help you plan your observing sessions is available either on the Calendar page, or the Astrolinks page -- where you can check for moonrise times, Iridium flares, International Space Station sightings, Jupiter's Great Red Spot transit and a lot more. And don't forget to check the Weather before you venture out -- but if its cloudy, come play in our Kid's Korner section instead! HAL's Observatory is in the advanced planning stages. The goal is to start construction during Howard County's next fiscal year. The site has been selected in Alpha Ridge park. It will house HAL's Watson Telescope. Full details about the Observatory and the Watson Telescope is documented on this website as is the status of our Building Fund. These pages are great resources to help keep abreast of this exciting project. Cluster Map - See Where Our Site Vistors are Located HAL is proud to have membership in: |
