89. DarkSky In Europe: Member as in Lombardy the amateur astronomers associations pushed to obtain the best law on the planet yet, so ALL THE EUROPEAN ASTRONOMICAL associations must join http://www.vialattea.net/cielobuio/europe/eumember.htm

"DarkSky in Europe" Member Dear European amateur astronomers, CieloBuio Since then some things changed. These are the main points: CieloBuio now counts more than 120 members among amateur astronomer groups including UAI (the national association of amateur astronomers), astronomical observatory, IDA-Italian section with its president Mario Di Sora and its scientific director Pierantonio Cinzano, light pollution experts (scientists, light designers, astronomer, lawyers) nation-wide. Lombardy bill has passed in January 2000. Now it is the law number 17 of March 27, 2000. We believe it to be the most effective anti light pollution law, surely in Italy, and perhaps of the World. In Italy we already have six regional laws out of twenty regions, but of these, three were spoiled by the intervention of light designers and producers. So I ask to you: to give your helpfulness such as representative of your association and of the other associations you can contact in order to start with a unitary European initiative. You should transmit directly to Falchi Fabio (CieloBuio - Scientific Commission): the representative (e-mail), the association, the nation, address and telephone number (eventually web site and e-mail).

The observatory was dedicated in the Summer 2001.

92. The Astronomical Society Of Southern Africa Following an invitation from the Cape Association it was decided in 1922 to merge the two associations to form the “Astronomical Society of South Africa”. http://www.saao.ac.za/assa/html/2_the_society.html

news sections centres publications ... symposia The Society is a body consisting of both amateur and professional astronomers. Membership is open to all interested persons, regardless of knowledge or experience. Brief history Shortly after the 1910 apparition of Halley’s Comet, the Cape Astronomical Association was established (1912), with SS Hough, HM Astronomer at the Cape, as President. In 1918, the Johannesburg Astronomical Association was created, with RTA Innes, Union Astronomer, as President. Following an invitation from the Cape Association it was decided in 1922 to merge the two Associations to form the “Astronomical Society of South Africa”. From the Cape Astronomical Association Annual Report 1921-1922 "In accordance with the resolution adopted at the Special General Meeting of June 7th, 1921, instructing your Council to open negotiations with the Johannesburg Astronomical Association with a view to union and the formation of an Astronomical Society for South Africa, your Council have been in communication with the Johannesburg Association and have submitted a draft constitution. This has now been adopted at Johannesburg and will shortly be submitted to you for your acceptance at a special general meeting to be called for that purpose." (anon 1923) The Society changed its name to the Astronomical Society of Southern Africa in 1956.

94. Veikko Mäkelä - Hobbies: Astronomy been interested more and more about electronical communication as help of amateur astronomy. I have participate also lots to club and association activities. http://www.helsinki.fi/~pvtmakel/eastronomia.html

Astronomy as hobby I have been interested in astronomy since I was about 10. This hobby have been especially watching and observing sky. The theoretical interest have been more or less just getting basic knowledge. Nowardays I have been interested more and more about electronical communication as help of amateur astronomy. I have participate also lots to club and association activities. During 20-years "career" in amateur astronomy the hobby is turned almost like a lifestyle. I have studied amateur astronomy with very wide view. The only bigger area I haven't done is optics and telescope making. I leave them for those who knows that better. Some special things in my hobby: Associations/Clubs Electronical communication Other Associations/Clubs Ursa Astronomical Association (Finnish) Member of board 1997-99 board member and vice member several periods Section leader Mathematics and information technology 1997- Halos Atmospheric optics Ex-editor-in-chief of Ursa Minor bulletin 1984-94, later assistant editor Active member in Club and association activity section Observatory assistant One of the editors of the Ursa yearly calender book "Tähdet" etc. etc.
