No equipment is necessary but a pair of binoculars would be useful.

At the next meeting, if it's cloudy we will be discussing the planets of the Solar System and maybe beyond.

If the sky is clear we will be observing.

Warm clothes, and a hat are advised, a clear night means cold temperatures. The one down side of astronomy.
