I'm just getting started and hoping to find some star parties or something near Yuba City.  I have a couple of small scopes and would like to learn something new.  All I've photographed so far has been the moon but hopefully I can find some dark areas and take on some more ambitious targets.

Yuba seems to be lacking in the astronomy department, although there is a private observatory.

I've been interested in the stars forever, but the department store telescope I used several years ago completely discouraged me as it seemed impossible to see anything. I recently picked up a pair of binoculars and was instantly hooked! During the recent blood moon I was able to see the Orion Nebula and a few clusters and satellites and have recently found the Andromeda Galaxy!

With that said, I've been trying to find others in the area who enjoy a good look at the stars with no luck.

If you come across a group, please let me know!
